Ingredients
- 4 Fresh black figs
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 Yellow onion (fresh)

- 1/4 cup Red wine vinegar
- 1/2 tsp Smoked paprika
- 1/4 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Chili powder/cayenne
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Peel and chop the onion and ginger.
- Add the oil to a pan and set it on a stove set to low/medium heat and add the chopped onion and ginger to it.
- Let the onion and ginger mix sauté for about 10 minutes or so until the onions start to caramelize a bit. Make sure to stir this often to keep the onions from burning.
- Rinse, dry, and chop the figs.
- Add in the figs, sweetener, vinegar, and smoked paprika, cayenne, and cinnamon.
- Turn up the heat on the stove to medium/ medium-high, and let these ingredients simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring the mixture often.

- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve with cheese and crackers, in sandwiches, or with chicken, turkey, pork, and other meats.
