Recipe: Fresh figs with blue cheese and candied pecans

Thursday, January 27, 2011 at 11:52AM

Fresh figs with blue cheese and candied pecans

Ingredients serves approximately 15, assuming that each guests eats 3 pieces

10 fresh figs: remove bottom/navel and top/stem, then slice remainder of each fruit in to 5 equal slices
1/2 lb. blue cheese (I used Bleu d'Auvergne), left out of fridge for 15-minutes
8oz. chopped candied pecans - I buy mine at Trader Joe's (if you cannot locate "candied" pecans, regular chopped pecans will do)

On a large serving plate/tray of choice, arrange figs side by side. Top each fig with a 5-finger pinch of blue cheese (approximately 1/2 tablespoon). Finally, crown each fig with a sprinkle of chopped candied pecans. Serve immediately and enjoy!
