Cover the saucepan and cook over medium-high heat for 10 to 15 minutes. Carefully turn the figs to ensure they are evenly stained by the red wine.




Continue cooking for an additional 10 minutes. Test the figs with a skewer; they are done when the skewer passes through the fruit with no resistance.



Remove the figs from the liquid and set aside. Discard the cinnamon stick, star anise, and lemon zest. Add the butter to the saucepan and reduce the wine over medium heat until it thickens to about 1/2 cup.








Serve the figs in a dish, drizzled with the warm wine reduction sauce. Optionally, serve alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
