About This Recipe
"Adapted from Party Line with the Hearty Boys on Food Network. A warm appetiser"
Ingredients
- 1 lb goat cheese
- 7 dried figs, sliced
- 1/4 cup dry sherry
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large Spanish onion, thinly sliced
- 5 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 fresh rosemary sprigs or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- 1 French baguette, sliced
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Crumble the goat cheese into an oven safe dish and set aside.
- In a sauce pot combine the figs and sherry with enough water to barely cover the figs. Place the sauce pot over high heat and bring up to a bubble, cover and remove from the heat and let the figs plump while the onions are cooking.
- Pour the olive oil into a large skillet and place over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper and cook, stirring often, for about 10 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- Using a slotted spoon remove the plumped figs from the sauce pot, leaving behind any of the pluming liquid.
- Add the figs to the cooked onions, stir to combine and then spoon over the goat cheese.
- Place the dish into the top half of the oven for 20 minutes, until the edges begin to bubble.
- Remove and serve immediately with sliced baguettes.

"I've made this several times. I increased the figs to about 18 for one pd. of goat cheese and use about 10 for 1/2 lb. Everyone loves it. I prepare it ahead of time and put it in the oven to serve. It also kept quite well using my warming tray. Bravo! Chefonthego"
