How to Make Fettuccini With Figs And Goat Cheese

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the red bell pepper squares with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly charred.
  2. While the peppers roast, in a medium saucepan, combine the quartered figs, broth, wine, black pepper, and thyme.
  3. Bring the fig mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  4. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until figs are very tender.
  5. Once cool enough to handle, remove the figs from the pan and set aside. Reserve the cooking liquid.
  6. Roughly chop the figs, discarding any stems.
  7. Meanwhile, cook the fettuccine according to package directions until al dente.
  8. In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the roasted red peppers and saute for 2-3 minutes to warm through.
  9. Stir in the reserved fig cooking liquid and bring to a simmer for 2-3 minutes to slightly reduce.
  10. Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the skillet with the roasted peppers and fig liquid.
  11. Stir in the crumbled goat cheese and chopped figs until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.
  12. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh chives.
