Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups Ruby Port
¼ cup granulated sugar
Cracked black pepper to taste
1 sprig fresh mint
10 fresh figs
4 ounces fresh goat cheese
1 cup mixed roasted nuts (cashews, pistachios, pecans, etc.)
1 ½ tablespoons melted butter
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon chili powder
Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil

Steps:

  • In saucepan heated to medium, combine port, sugar, cracked pepper and mint, and simmer until consistency of syrup, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • Preheat oven to 415 degrees F. Cut figs in half, from top to bottom. Line a baking sheet with a large sheet of Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil. Fold up the sheet in the center to create a barrier, splitting the sheet into two sides. On one half, place figs cut side up, and top each with about 1/2 teaspoon of goat cheese.
  • Toss the nuts in a bowl with butter, salt, pepper and chili powder. Spread in single layer on the other side of the foil-lined pan. Roast 10 minutes. Keep an eye on the nuts so they don't burn.
  • To serve, chop the nuts and sprinkle bits on the figs. Drizzle figs and nuts with port reduction.
