Ingredients

Honey
Balsamic vinegar
Mission figs, halved

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a pan. Simmer over low heat for 30 minutes, being careful not to get it too hot or scald.

When the skins of the figs have broken down and the balsamic has reduced, remove from heat. Strain to remove fig skin pieces.

Use as a basting marinade for grilling chicken that has also been seasoned with salt, pepper and a little bit of oil.
