Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Wash and trim the green figs, then cut them in half.

Toss the figs with olive oil, salt, and black pepper in a bowl.

Spread the figs on a baking sheet cut-side up.

Roast the figs in the oven until caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.

While the figs roast, prepare the dressing by whisking lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

Chop the red onion, bell pepper, and cucumber into bite-sized pieces.

In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, chopped vegetables, and fresh herbs.

Once the figs are roasted, let them cool slightly before adding to the salad.

Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Top with crumbled feta cheese before serving.
