Ok, the ultimate in decadence for an appetizer! Try to get Black Mission figs, fresh. Even if you think they're kind of boring, once they've cooked down for awhile with the bacon, you get that wonderful sweet and salt thing going on. I just wrapped each fig in 1/2 slice of bacon and stuck it with a toothpick. Roast at 450 for 30 to 40 minutes, pouring off the grease as needed.
I am the worlds biggest health nut but I am obsessed with bacon wrapped figs. In fact I'm completely pescetarian except for the once or twice a year that I MUST have this.
ReplyDeleteNever had figs before, This is a great way to try them.
