Oven-Roasted Prunes Wrapped With Pancetta - cooking recipe

Ingredients

24 prunes, pitted
3 ounces blue cheese
3 ounces pancetta, cut into 1 1/2-inch lengths

Preparation

Preheat a broiler. Stuff each prune with about 1/2 teaspoon cheese. Wrap with a piece of pancetta and fasten with a toothpick.
Place the prunes on a baking sheet and broil until the pancetta is lightly crisped, turning once, about 5 minutes. Too long under the broiler and the cheese will melt and ooze out.
