Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the shallot and saute for 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme, and saute for an additional minute.
- Add the tomatoes, figs, salt, and pepper. Cover and saute for about 10-12 minutes undisturbed.
- Remove the lid, add the balsamic vinegar, then stir. Reduce heat to medium and continue to saute until any excess liquid has cooked off, stirring occasionally.
- Remove the skillet from heat and let the tomatoes and figs rest for about 8-10 minutes to cool the skillet slightly.
- Place the burrata on top of the tomatoes and figs. Garnish with fresh basil and kosher salt.
- Serve with toasted baguette, sourdough, or your favorite dipping bread!
Notes
- I suggest using fresh figs, however they aren't always available which is why this recipe calls for dried.
- If you are wanting to store leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for just 2-3 days. This dish is best served fresh.
