Ingredients
20 large fresh ripe figs
20 thin slices Italian prosciutto (about 8 ounces)
Olio Santo Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
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.
