Here is a recipe for an absolutely fabulous Fig Pizza!
I know, I know... it doesn't sound so great, but I guarantee... you will love it! I served it at a wedding shower luncheon and saw a few noses crinkle when it was served. When lunch was over not a crumb was left and requests for the recipe were many!
I use a prepared pizza dough crust.
In a frying pan brown 6 to 8 slices of good bacon until crispy. Crumble and set aside bacon and using the same pan, at lower heat, saute 1/2 of a chopped onion. When the onion is just getting transparent(about 3 minutes) add 6 chopped figs and 1/2 cup chopped fresh mint leaves. Saute for about 2 minutes, add crumbled bacon and gently stir. Spread the mixture over prepared pizza crust, drizzle with olive oil (just a little) and bake in the oven following the directions on the crust container. Usually about 10 to 15 minutes at 425 degrees.
Serve with a salad or sliced tomatoes. It's amazingly delicious!
