Ingredients
 
 

  • 1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 pound Brussels Sprouts trimmed and halved (about 3 pints)
  • 1 pound California Fresh Figs stem removed and halved
  • 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper freshly ground
  • 3 ounces Prosciutto thinly sliced
  • 1 Tablespoon Chili Flakes or 2 teaspoons, or omit entirely
  • 3 Tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 C)
  • Toss the Brussels Sprouts and Figs with the olive oil, salt and pepper, and arrange in a single layer on a sheet pan. Roast in the oven for 15 minutes.
  • While the sprouts figs are roasting, slice the prosciutto slices lengthwise, so you have two long strips from each slice. Coil each strip loosely into a small roll and set the rolls on a plate.
  • After the figs and sprouts have roasted for 15 minutes, pull the sheet pan out of the oven. Scatter the coils of rolled prosciutto over the pan, and then follow with an even sprinkle of the chili flakes. If the pan looks overly dry (no visible olive oil) drizzle another 1-2 tablespoons of oil evenly over the pan.
  • Return the sheet pan to the oven for another 10 minutes to finish roasting.
  • Allow the figs, sprouts and prosciutto to cool for about 5 minutes after removing from the oven, then drizzle the vinegar evenly over the pan. Then this roasted figs are ready to serve.
  • Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

The prosciutto may be omitted if desired. 
 
Enjoy with a glass of California wine!
