Bacon-Wrapped Spiced Figs
 
Makes 12
Ingredients
  • 12 slices center-cut bacon
  • ½ teaspoon ground coriander
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 12 large fresh figs
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425°.
  2. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook bacon until slices start to curl and brown slightly, 2 to 3 minutes per side. (Do not cook until crisp.) Remove bacon, and let drain on paper towels, reserving drippings in skillet.
  3. In a small bowl, stir together coriander, cumin, salt, cinnamon, and cayenne.
  4. In a large bowl, toss together figs and oil to coat. Sprinkle spice mixture onto figs, tossing to coat. Wrap 1 slice bacon around each fig, securing ends with wooden picks. Place in skillet.
  5. Bake until bacon is browned and crisp on edges, about 15 minutes. Remove wooden picks, and serve immediately.
