Tiger Apricots Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Apricots

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut a small slit in each apricot and remove the pit. Wrap each apricot with a slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick if necessary.

2. 2

   Bake the Apricots

   Place the bacon-wrapped apricots on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the apricots are tender.

3. 3

   Make the Chipotle Honey Mascarpone

   In a bowl, mix together the mascarpone cheese, chipotle in adobo sauce, and honey until smooth. Adjust the heat by adding more chipotle if desired.

4. 4

   Prepare the Cilantro Emulsion

   In a blender, combine the cilantro, olive oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

5. 5

   Assemble the Dish

   On a serving plate, place a handful of arugula. Top with the bacon-wrapped apricots. Drizzle the chipotle honey mascarpone over the top and finish with a drizzle of cilantro emulsion.
