Category: Appetizers served hot/warm
Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:
12 figs (Good figs should be heavy and sticky, almost ready to burst.
They are a delicacy, and are best eaten right off the tree.
Their shelf life is very short, maybe 2 days on the counter before they start getting moldy, and 3 days, if you are lucky, in the fridge.)
Prosciutto - enough to wrap around 24 fig
halves.
24 fresh basil leaves
Olive oil for basting
Balsamic vinegar for drizzling
Take skewers and thread them with fresh fig halves, wrap with a small piece of prosciutto, speck or Serrano ham, and tuck a fresh basil leaf inside.
Drizzle with olive oil and grill on medium heat for about a minute or so on each side.
Slide off the skewers and drizzle a small amount of balsamic vinegar on them while still warm.
These make an impressive appetizer.
