Hot Fig Appetizer

I’ve made this as a cold appetizer in the past, but this time around I made it hot and served it as a side salad. It was super delicious and now I can’t decide if I like it better hot or cold.

Instructions

  1. Start at the top pointy end of your figs and cut a cross in them. Cut about half way down and then grab the fig and squeeze it a bit to get the cross to open.
  2. Wrap a piece of Prosciutto around the base of the fig.
  3. Place a small chunk of goats cheese into the opening that was made by cutting the cross in the fig.
  4. Place on a baking sheet and broil for about 5 minutes or until the cheese starts to brown.
