Servings: 32 crostini
Course: Appetizers, Tapas
Cuisine: Spanish
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 baguette sliced on the bias into ΒΌ-inch thick slices
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for drizzling
  • 1 dried Spanish chorizo I used an uncured variety, sliced thin
  • 1 wedge manchego cheese I used an 8 month aged raw milk variety, sliced thin
  • 16 dried figs cut in half
  • 2-4 tablespoons honey for drizzling
  • Fresh snipped chives for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  1. Preheat broiler to high. 
  2. Place baguette slices on a baking sheet and drizzle lightly with olive oil, flipping slices and rubbing them around a bit to get oil on both sides. Broil until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes, then flip and broil for another minute or 2, until golden brown. You may need to do this in 2 batches if using the full baguette. 
  3. Transfer toasted baguette slices to a serving platter. Top each with a slice of manchego, a slice of chorizo, and half of a dried fig. Drizzle crostini with honey and sprinkle chives over top.
