Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Slice 12 ½-inch slices of bread from the baguette. Place on a baking sheet, and brush generously with the olive oil. Sprinkle a little salt if desired on each slice.
- Bake for about 10 mins, or until crisp and slightly golden. Remove from oven and cool slightly.
- Spread goat cheese on each crostini. Spread about a tablespoon of Bonne Maman Fig Preserves on top of the goat cheese.
- Fold the slices of prosciutto neatly and place on top of each crostini.
- Lay fresh arugula leaves on top of each crostini to taste.
PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED FIGS
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
- Cut a small hole in the center of the flesh of each fig. Fill each hole with 1/4 teaspoon of goat cheese.
- Take a prosciutto slice and tear in half. Use 1 half to diagonally wrap around the fig, starting from the top. Tuck underneath at the ends. Repeat until all figs are wrapped. (Secure with toothpicks if necessary.) Place wrapped figs on prepared baking sheet, evenly spaced.
- In a small bowl, combine honey and pumpkin pie spice. Drizzle honey evenly over each fig.
- Place in the oven on the top rack and roast for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and serve immediately.
GRILLED PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED FIGS STUFFED WITH GOAT CHEESE
Steps:
- Preheat the grill and brush with a grill brush to remove any excess crud and fat. After brushing, run an oiled towel over the grates to pick up any loosened crud or soot.
- Drizzle each fig half with vinegar and fill each fig center with goat cheese. Sprinkle a couple flakes of crushed red pepper, if using, on top of the goat cheese and wrap each fig with a slice of prosciutto. Paint the outside of each fig very lightly with olive oil.
- Put the figs on a cooler spot of the preheated grill. The idea here is that we want to grill the figs gently to cook the fig all the way through but to still get the char on the outside. Grill the figs on all sides so the prosciutto is starting to become crispy and the fig feels soft when squeezed, about 5 to 6 minutes.
- While the figs are grilling, in a large bowl, toss the arugula with a little extra-virgin olive oil, some balsamic vinegar and the Parmigiano-Reggiano. Taste, and add salt, if needed. Arrange on individual serving plates or a serving platter and top with the figs. Drizzle a couple of drops of balsamic on each fig and serve.
- Its figgy delicious!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread 1 tablespoon olive oil on a baking sheet.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir shallots until translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper into shallots; cook and stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Transfer shallot mixture to a bowl; stir in goat cheese, mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, figs, and basil until well combined.
- Pound each chicken breast on a work surface until thin. Spoon about 1/4 cup goat cheese mixture onto the middle of each piece of chicken. Roll chicken around the filling and wrap 2 pieces prosciutto around each chicken roll, covering the opening with 1 layer of prosciutto. Place chicken rolls onto the prepared baking sheet, seam-side down.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes; turn chicken and continue baking until chicken is no longer pink in the center and prosciutto is crisp, about 20 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Let chicken stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Combine goat cheese, rosemary, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small mixing bowl, and stir.
- Make a small slit in bottom or side of each fig. Fill a pastry bag fitted with a small plain tip with cheese mixture. Pipe cheese into each fig through slit. Fill figs with just enough cheese so they expand slightly.
- Tear or cut the prosciutto slices into long strips. Wrap a strip of prosciutto around each fig, and skewer 4 figs on each rosemary sprig. Brush figs with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
- Place figs on a moderately hot grill, rotating skewers until figs are very hot and cheese starts to ooze, about 6 minutes. Remove from grill; serve immediately with a drizzle of olive oil and good bread.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
- Cut a small hole in the center of the flesh of each fig. Fill each hole with 1/4 teaspoon of goat cheese.
- Take a prosciutto slice and tear in half. Use 1 half to diagonally wrap around the fig, starting from the top. Tuck underneath at the ends. Repeat until all figs are wrapped. (Secure with toothpicks if necessary.) Place wrapped figs on prepared baking sheet, evenly spaced.

- Place in the oven on the top rack and roast for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and serve immediately.
Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh, ripe figs. If you can't find fresh figs, you can use dried figs, but be sure to soak them in warm water for at least 30 minutes before using.
- If you don't have prosciutto, you can use another type of cured meat, such as pancetta or bacon.
- If you don't have goat cheese, you can use another type of soft cheese, such as ricotta or mascarpone.
- To make the pasta dough, you can use a food processor or a stand mixer. If you're using a food processor, be sure to pulse the ingredients until they just come together. If you're using a stand mixer, use the dough hook attachment and mix on low speed until the dough comes together.
- When rolling out the pasta dough, be sure to dust it with flour to prevent it from sticking. You can use a pasta machine or a rolling pin to roll out the dough.
- When cooking the pasta, be sure to add it to a large pot of boiling salted water. Cook the pasta for 2-3 minutes, or until it is al dente.
- To make the sauce, simply combine the figs, prosciutto, goat cheese, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Conclusion:
This fresh fettuccine with figs, prosciutto, and goat cheese is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The combination of sweet figs, salty prosciutto, and tangy goat cheese is simply irresistible. This dish is sure to impress your guests, and it's easy to make too!
