Prosciutto Roasted Figs

Type: Fruit
Courses: Starters and appetizers

Recipe Ingredients

40   Fresh mission figs (small)
4 oz 113gManchego or blue cheese
20   Prosciutto - halved lengthwise
  Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste

Recipe Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Make a small slit in the side of each fig and stuff a raisin-size piece of cheese in the opening. Wrap a piece of prosciutto around each to enclose like a little cocoon.

Stand the figs on a sheet pan. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes so the prosciutto melts slightly and forms a skin around the figs. Season with lots of ground black pepper.

These are terrific hot or at room temperature
