INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat barbecue or grill. Lay the 12 grape leaves out on counter and move
aside. In a mixing bowl, mix goat cheese and black pepper until homogenous.
Place a generous tablespoon of goat cheese in center of each leaf. Fold
each leaf up like a burrito, and secure with a toothpick or tie with
butcher twine. Drizzle 1 teaspoon olive oil over each and chill one hour in
refrigerator. Remove from refrigerator and place over medium-hot part of
grill and cook until leaves are just starting to char all over. Remove from
grill and place 3 each on 4 plates. Drizzle each with a teaspoonful of
balsamic vinegar and a dusting of fresh thyme leaves and serve immediately.
This recipe yields 4 servings as antipasto.
