- 2 tbsps extra-virgin olive oil (plus 2 additional tsp)

Directions
Tasting notes: We love pairing figs with Pinot because the sweetness of the fig is such a great contrast to the fruit and acidity in the Pinot.
Serena's tips: I make the fig compote (step 5) first so that I can skip transferring the chicken to a baking sheet to keep warm in the oven. You can also decrease the quantity of figs in order to decrease the sweetness level.
