Number Of Ingredients 6

12 fresh black Mission figs, stems removed
2 ounces blue cheese, cut into 12 equal pieces
6 pecan halves, broken in half lengthwise
6 thin slices proscuitto, 2 to 3 ounces, cut in half lengthwise
Olive oil, for brushing
Honey, for serving

Steps:

  • Place 12 skewers (4 inches each) in water to soak for at least 10 minutes. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Slice the figs through the center vertically without cutting all the way through. Carefully open each fig, and place a slice of cheese and a pecan piece inside each. Gently squeeze figs to enclose the cheese. Wrap figs horizontally with a strip of proscuitto and skewer to secure. Brush the figs with oil and place on the grill. Cook, just until grill marks begin to appear, about 1 1/2 minutes. Turn and repeat with opposite side.
  • Transfer to a serving platter, and lightly drizzle with honey. Serve warm or at room temperature.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these turned out really dry. I'll try again soon.

These were a bit bland. I think I'll add some honey or balsamic glaze next time.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try them with goat cheese next time.

I'm not a big fan of blue cheese, but I still enjoyed these. The prosciutto and figs are a great combination.

The blue cheese adds a nice tanginess to the dish. It's a great contrast to the sweetness of the figs.

I love the way the prosciutto crisps up on the grill. It adds a nice crunch to the dish.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The prosciutto is salty, the figs are sweet, and the blue cheese is tangy. It's a perfect appetizer.

I've made these several times and they're always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of sweet and savory is perfect.

These were a hit at my last party! I used goat cheese instead of blue cheese and they were still delicious.
