Prosciutto wrapped figs

Every month we will share a recipe for a simple bite-sized creation for your next event.  With figs in season, we thought it would be the perfect time for this delicious treat.  We recommend a trip to your local farmer’s market to find the perfect ingredients:

Fresh figs marinated in port served with blue cheese and wrapped in prosciutto di parma

  • 8 Black Mission figs
  • 1/2 cup blue cheese, cut into cubes
  • 12 slices prosciutto di parma (thinly sliced, cut in half lengthwise)
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper


Slice figs in quarters – place in non-reactive bowl and drizzle with port wine – allow to marinate while preparing the rest of your ingredients

Preheat grill to medium high heat.

Place a piece of blue cheese on each fig quarter. Wrap prosciutto around each fig half, covering the cheese. The ends of the prosciutto should overlap.

Grill each piece until the prosciutto begins to color and crisp, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove from grill, lightly drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and season with sea salt and pepper. Serve warm.
