Receta de Datiles con Queso Manchego y Panceta Ibérica - Ibérico Bacon Wrapped Dates Stuffed with Manchego Cheese Recipe

Preparation

STEP 1

Cut the Medjool date down the middle and gently remove the pit and stem. Cut the baby Manchego cheese into 12 small rectangles, just long enough to fit inside the dates. Stuff each date with a piece of the cheese, and smooth out to cover the cheese.
