Roasted Figs - Sweet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Figs
  • 4-6 sprigs Thyme
  • 2 T red wine or other liquor Grand Marnier or Cointreau
  • 1 T brown sugar
  • 2 T honey
  • 3 inches of fresh lemon zest

Method
 

  1. Wash and trim figs, then slice once lengthwise.
  2. Toss figs with the herbs, sweeteners, lemon zest, and liquor.
  3. Lay the figs cut-side-down in a baking dish, or if you are doing this in a barbecue, use a rimmed baking sheet.
  4. For soft & juicy figs, cover with foil and roast at 400 degrees F for 15-20 mins - until they are softened and cooked through.
  5. For firmer, caramelized figs, roast them uncovered for 30 mins at 400.
