Time 18m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 fresh figs
½ cup goat cheese, softened
8 grape leaves, drained and rinsed
½ cup honey
skewers

Steps:

  • Preheat grill for medium heat.
  • Make a small incision in the bottom of each fig (large enough to hold pastry bag tip). Place goat cheese in pastry bag with plain tip. Fill figs with goat cheese by squeezing a small amount of cheese into the bottom of each fig. The figs will plump up when filled. Wrap each fig with a grape leaf, and skewer 2 to 3 figs on each skewer.
  • Lightly oil the grill grate. Place fig skewers on hot grill. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, turning once. Drizzle with honey, and serve.

This is a great recipe! I've made it several times and it always turns out perfectly. The figs are always so juicy and the goat cheese is so creamy. I love the combination of the two flavors.
