Ingredients

Instructions

  • Make the Slaw: toss together the cabbage, shaved onion, California Golden Dried Figs, parsley, mayonnaise, and 1/2 cup fig barbecue sauce until blended.
  • Combine the ground lamb, minced onion, California Mission Figs, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until blended. Shape into 8 patties. Drizzle olive oil into a large skillet set over medium heat. Add the patties and cook about 4 minutes. Turn them over, brushing the top generously with FIg BBQ Sauce. Cook another 2-3 minutes, until cooked through.
  • Assemble the slider: lay a few basil leaves on the bottom side of a roll. Top with a slider patty, a slice of mozzarella and pile on the slaw. Serve immediately.
