Grilled Prosciutto and Brie Wrapped Figs

Servings 12 bites

Equipment

  • Outdoor or indoor grill
  • Cutting board
  • Chef’s knife

Ingredients

  • 6 slices prosciutto
  • 6 large ripe figs
  • 12 1-inch pieces of sliced brie (or blue cheese! or camembert! or a teaspoon of goat cheese! or cheddar honestly would be delish too!)
  • 1 to 2 tbsp honey
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

Instructions

  • Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
  • Halve 6 prosciutto slices lengthwise. Halve 6 large figs. Place the figs at the end of a sliced piece of prosciutto. Place the cheese on top of the fig, and roll the fig up into the prosciutto.
  • Grill figs for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until slightly crisped up, but not so much that the cheese is totally oozing out!
  • Drizzle with 1 or 2 tablespoons of honey, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, and enjoy immediately!

Substitutions

  • Prosciutto: no - bacon won’t work, it won’t cook fast enough! You could skewer some salami around the figs!
  • Figs: peaches, apples, pears…
  • Cheese: literally any kind of cheese would be delicious. I don’t think you can go wrong!
  • Honey: balsamic glaze would also be tasty!
  • Thyme: finely minced rosemary. You can also use a tiny pinch of dried herbs, just be sure to smash them between your fingers as you sprinkle them on top so that you don’t get a hard bite.
