Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF.
- Cut the stems off the figs and cut in half lengthwise through the stem.

- Roast the figs for 15 minutes, until the prosciutto is crisp and the figs are warmed through.
- Serve warm.
Notes
If you can’t find Calabrian chili paste, any chili paste will do. You could even use a chili sauce like sriracha if you can’t find a paste.
If you have leftovers, keep them refrigerated and pop them into a 350ºF. oven to warm through. When serving, I scattered some micro-greens to add colour and a little freshness. I also drizzled a little honey over the figs for some added sweetness.
