Preparation

Step 1

Preheat gas or charcoal grill to high. On a work surface, place one slice of cheese on the cut side of each fig. Wrap with a slice of prosciutto and secure with a toothpick. Brush with rosemary oil and season with salt and pepper.

Grill cut side down for 2 minutes; turn over and continue cooking until the figs are almost cooked through and the cheese has melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Place the figs on a service platter and immediately drizzle with rosemary oil.
