Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the brioche into 1/2-inch thick slices and place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with unsalted butter and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
2
While the brioche is baking, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the foie gras slices with salt and pepper. Sear the foie gras for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked to your desired level of doneness.
3
To make the fig compote, combine the fig jam and a tablespoon of water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the compote has thickened slightly. Strain the compote through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any seeds or solids.
4
To assemble the dish, place a slice of toasted brioche on a plate. Top with a slice of seared foie gras and spoon some of the fig compote over the top. Garnish with fresh thyme or microgreens, if desired.
