Grilled Fresh Figs Brie Prosciutto Recipe 445

GRILLED BRIE, FIG AND PROSCIUTTO SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Spread the fig preserves onto 4 slices of bread.
• Cut the Brie into 8 long, thin slices.
• Lay 2 slices of Brie over the preserves. (I have also used creme de brie since I don't really care for the rind of Brie. If you go this route you can just spread the creme de Brie over the other slices of bread.).
• Arrange the prosciutto over the Brie.
• Top with the remaining 4 slices of bread.
• Spread half of the butter over the tops of the sandwiches and invert onto a hot skillet or pan.
• Spread the remaining butter on the other side of the sandwiches.
• Cook on the stove or in the oven, turning the sandwiches over once or twice, until the bread is golden brown and the Brie is melted.
• Cut in half to serve.

FIGS WRAPPED IN PROSCIUTTO WITH GORGONZOLA AND BRIE

GRILLED FRESH FIGS, BRIE & PROSCIUTTO RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Cut the fig in half and lay a small square of brie on top. Wrap a small slice of prosciutto around the fig and cheese to attach it. Put about 3 or 4 wrapped figs on each skewer. NOTE: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least an hour before using them. If using an outdoor grill, a grate with small holes is recommended. Grill for 1 to 2 minutes, until cheese is melted.

ROASTED FIGS AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Snip the hard stems off the figs and cut the figs in half lengthwise through the stem. With a small sharp knife, cut the prosciutto lengthwise into inch-wide strips. Wrap a strip of prosciutto around the center of each fig half, with the ends overlapping. Brush with olive oil and arrange cut-side up on a sheet pan.
• Roast the figs for 10 minutes, until the prosciutto is a little crisp and the figs are warmed through. Serve warm.
