Grilled Cheese with Boursin, Apples and Fig Jam

1. For fig jam, in small saucepan, combine figs, water, sugar and lemon juice. Over high heat, bring to a boil.

2. Reduce heat to low; simmer 10 minutes or until figs are softened. Cool in saucepan; transfer to food processor. Cover and puree. Add black pepper, process just to combine.  

3. For sandwich, spread fig jam on bottom of one bread slice. Layer apples, then arugula on top. On second bread slice, spread cheese; place over arugula and sandwich together.

4. In nonstick skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Place sandwich in pan to coat with butter on one side; flip and cook to butter second side. Cook until bread is toasted; flip and cook second side until golden brown. To serve, cut sandwich in half.
