Prosciutto & Melon with Fig and Port Wine Sauce

Oh...my...GAWD! Shlamazing. For realz.  MAKE THIS!

Ingredients:
a melon - cantaloupe
thinly sliced prosciutto
arugula
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup port wine
7 fresh mission figs OR 8 dried mission figs (which is what I used) cut in half
Extra virgin olive oil

Directions:
In a small sauce pan, bring the sugar, port wine, and figs to a simmer and keep simmering until it has reduced to about 1/2 cup of syrupy liquid.  Let it cool a little and put it in the food processor or blender and pulse until the figs are broken up but not totally pureed. Then let warm back in the pot on the stove.

Cut the melon into chunks, wrap each one with some prosciutto, arrange over a bed of arugula in a super fancy way as pictured, and drizzle with a tiny bit of olive oil.  Artfully drizzle a few spoonfuls of the sauce over the whole thing and on the plate for fun, crank a little black pepper, and then go brag to your friend about how freakin awesome you are!
