Figs in Prosciutto Blankets

 

Everyone loves pigs in a blanket – tiny frankfurters wrapped in

biscuit dough – but have you ever tried this spin-off?  Prosciutto

wrapped around fresh figs?

 

8 ripe figs, split in half lengthwise

16 slices thin prosciutto

2 TBL olive oil

¼ pound parmesan or provolone cheese (shaved)

 

Preheat the grill:

 

Wrap each fig half with a slice of prosciutto and secure with a

skewer or toothpick.  Lightly brush with olive oil and grill 2 to 3

minutes, turning once.  Remove the skewers or toothpicks and

top the figs with shaved cheese and a sprinkling of black pepper. 

Serve immediately.
