Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 14 dried figs
  • 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
  • Prepared Lemon Basil White Wine Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup light white wine ((I used Pinot Grigio))
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instruction

  • Cut the top off of the fig and scoop out the inside seeds/pulp and place on a baking dish, then stuff each fig with the goat cheese. 
  • In a small saucepan, melt the butter and add the basil and lemon zest. Stir for about 1 minute, then add the flour to form a roux. 
  • Next, add the wine, chicken broth, salt and pepper. Whisk until the sauce is smooth; then pour over the figs.  
  • Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 15 minutes or until the cheese has melted. Transfer figs to a serving platter and spoon sauce over the top.
