Fresh Figs with Bacon and Goat Cheese

Ingredients for Fresh Figs with Bacon and Goat Cheese

• 4 to 6 regular smoked bacon slices (2 1/4 to 100g uncooked)

• 12 small fresh ripe figs, such as white or Calimyrna, halved lengthwise

• About 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

• 80ml (about 45g ) crumbled mild herbed goat cheese

How to make Fresh Figs with Bacon and Goat Cheese

Preheat the oven to 177°C. In a medium heavy skillet, place the bacon slices in a single layer and cook over low to medium-low heat, turning as needed until just beginning to brown. Transfer to a paper towel to drain. Cut each bacon slice into 4 or 6 pieces.

Arrange the figs on a baking sheet, cut sides up. Brush the cut surfaces with balsamic vinegar. Place a piece of bacon on each cut side. Top with a small crumble of cheese. Bake until the figs are warmed, about 8 minutes. The cheese will not melt but may toast a bit. Serve immediately.
