Grilled Fresh Figs Brie Prosciutto Recipe 445 Food

FIGS WITH PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Halve the figs lengthways and put them, cut side down, without oil, in a hot griddle pan (or heavy-based frying pan) for 1 minute until charred. Sprinkle with balsamic vinegar and salt and black pepper to taste, and, while still warm, wrap each half in a little piece of prosciutto.
• Serve as canapés or a starter, garnished with shaved parmesan and fresh mint or rocket leaves.

GRILLED FIGS, PROSCIUTTO AND BURRATA APPETIZER

Steps:

• Brush the sliced figs with olive oil on both sides. Set the figs on the grill cut-side up and grill for 2 minutes. Flip them over and cook them for 2-3 minutes more, just until they get a little brown but be careful to remove them before they get too mushy. Slice each fig again so you have quarters.
• Spread the arugula leave out evenly on a large platter. Scatter the fig quarters evenly around the platter. Use a teaspoon to scoop out the burrata and place blobs of it evenly around the platter. Pull prosciutto apart into bite sized strips and place it evenly around. Drizzle 2-3 tablespoons olive oil and 2-3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar over everything. Sprinkle with a pinch or two of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Serve with a sliced baguette on the side, if you like.

FIGS WRAPPED IN PROSCIUTTO WITH GORGONZOLA AND BRIE

Steps:

• Slice the cheeses into small square slabs. Top each cut-side of a fig with a piece of cheese. Wrap each fig up with a half slice of prosciutto. Secure with a bamboo pick. Arrange on a platter.

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED GRILLED BRIE WITH PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for direct and indirect heat: For gas grills (with 3 or more burners), turn all the burners to medium-high heat; after about 15 minutes turn off one of the side burners and turn the remaining burners down to medium. For charcoal grills, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. Set up a drip pan on the other side to avoid flare-ups. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results.)
• Grill the pineapple over direct heat until golden on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Let cool 5 minutes, then place on the cut side of one of the cheese halves. Place the other piece of cheese on top with the cut side touching the pineapple. Lay the prosciutto slices out on a work surface so they overlap in the middle and look like the spokes of a wheel. Put the cheese and pineapple round in the middle of the prosciutto and bring up one slice at a time to cover. The cheese and pineapple should be fully wrapped in prosciutto.
• Grill over direct heat until starting to turn golden and crisp, about 3 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook until golden and crisp on the other side, about 3 minutes. Move to indirect heat and cover the grill. Cook until hot throughout and gooey, 5 to 8 minutes more depending on your grill. Serve immediately with crackers and bread.

GRILLED PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED FIGS STUFFED WITH GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the grill and brush with a grill brush to remove any excess crud and fat. After brushing, run an oiled towel over the grates to pick up any loosened crud or soot.
• Drizzle each fig half with vinegar and fill each fig center with goat cheese. Sprinkle a couple flakes of crushed red pepper, if using, on top of the goat cheese and wrap each fig with a slice of prosciutto. Paint the outside of each fig very lightly with olive oil.
• Put the figs on a cooler spot of the preheated grill. The idea here is that we want to grill the figs gently to cook the fig all the way through but to still get the char on the outside. Grill the figs on all sides so the prosciutto is starting to become crispy and the fig feels soft when squeezed, about 5 to 6 minutes.
• While the figs are grilling, in a large bowl, toss the arugula with a little extra-virgin olive oil, some balsamic vinegar and the Parmigiano-Reggiano. Taste, and add salt, if needed. Arrange on individual serving plates or a serving platter and top with the figs. Drizzle a couple of drops of balsamic on each fig and serve.
• Its figgy delicious!

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.

GRILLED FIGS WITH GOAT CHEESE AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Combine goat cheese, rosemary, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small mixing bowl, and stir.
• Make a small slit in bottom or side of each fig. Fill a pastry bag fitted with a small plain tip with cheese mixture. Pipe cheese into each fig through slit. Fill figs with just enough cheese so they expand slightly.
• Tear or cut the prosciutto slices into long strips. Wrap a strip of prosciutto around each fig, and skewer 4 figs on each rosemary sprig. Brush figs with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
• Place figs on a moderately hot grill, rotating skewers until figs are very hot and cheese starts to ooze, about 6 minutes. Remove from grill; serve immediately with a drizzle of olive oil and good bread.

GRILLED FRESH FIGS AND BLUE CHEESE

Steps:

• Cut the figs in half lengthwise and put a tablespoon of blue cheese on top of each half. Top this mixture with a teaspoon of balsamic vinegar.
• Put figs on a warm grill and cook until the cheese melts and the figs are heated through.
• Serve and enjoy!

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.

GRILLED PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED BRIE

Steps:

• Preheat barbecue to medium-high heat.
• Cut Brie in half to make two half-moons. Wrap one half and save for another use. Cut other half into eight equal, pie-shaped wedges. Wrap one piece of prosciutto around each wedge of Brie, covering as much of Brie as possible. Place cantaloupe on serving platter.
• Place prosciutto-wrapped Brie wedges on greased grill. Grill for 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side, or until grill-marked and cheese is starting to melt. Place on top of cantaloupe slices and serve immediately.
• **** To prepare this ahead of time, prepare the prosciutto and brie packages. Wrap well with plastic wrap and refrigerate until grilling time. ****.

FRESH FIG AND PROSCIUTTO SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Scoop out a bit of bread from the centre of the bread halves.
• Mix the oil and basil in a small bowl and drizzle evenly over both bread halves.
• Arrange the prosciutto evenly over the bottom half of the bread.
• Gently spread the cheese over the prosciutto and top the cheese with sliced figs. Sprinkle with the lemon juice and black pepper.
• Cover with the top half of the bread and wrap in aluminum foil, leaving the seam on top open slightly.
• Bake until the cheese is melted and the sandwich is heated through, about 15 minutes. Cut into 8 equal pieces and serve immediately.

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.
