A great restaurant in our town, Capers and Lemons, makes the very best flatbread appetizer with fig jam. I've reversed engineered it here for the home cook. Although you are probably like me, and don't have a wood-fire pizza oven like Capers and Lemons, don't worry - your kitchen oven will still work fine. Or try it on the gas grill, using indirect heating.
2 prepared naan flatbreads, or pita breads
2-3 Tbsp fig jam
1 thin slice Prosciutto ham, broken into pieces
1/4 cup Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
3-4 leaves fresh basil, ripped apart
Preheat oven to 400F. Spread the fig jam evenly about the flatbreads. Sprinkle the ham, cheese and basil about the flatbreads.
Place them on baking sheets and bake for about 10 minutes, until the cheese is just starting to melt and bubble a bit. Remove from oven, slice into serving pieces and serve.
Serves 4 as appetizer.
