Yield Makes 20 of each hors d'oeuvre

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 baguette
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1/4 pound prosciutto, very thinly sliced and torn into bite-size pieces
Fresh lemon thyme, for garnish
10 fresh figs, halved lengthwise
Fresh tarragon, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler. Cut baguette into 20 slices (each about 1/4 inch thick); transfer to a baking sheet. Brush tops with oil. Broil until golden, 1 to 2 minutes.
