Goat Cheese Figs Wrapped in Prosciutto

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat your broiler on high. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Cut each fig in half lengthwise. Note: I like to leave the stem on as a handle but you’re welcome to cut that off as well.

  3. 3

    Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise as well. Place 1/2-1 tsp of goat cheese (depending on the size of the fig) in the center of the fig.

  4. 4

    Wrap the fig with half a slice of prosciutto and place it cut side up on the baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining figs.

  5. 5

    Drizzle the olive oil over the wrapped figs and sprinkle them with fresh thyme.

  6. 6

    Broil just until warm— about 3 minutes. Note: Watch carefully. Don’t walk away— they can burn very quickly!

  7. 7

    Top the figs with balsamic vinegar, honey & sea salt flakes (if using).

  8. 8

    These figs can be served warm or at room temperature. They can also be made in advance (up to 4 hours) and kept in the fridge until ready to broil.

Notes

You can also prepare these goat cheese figs in advance {up to 4 hours} and keep them in the fridge until you are ready to boil. The figs can be served warm or at room temperature making them a great party appetizer.
