BALSAMIC-GLAZED FIG & PORK TENDERLOIN
I have a huge fig tree that produces an abundance of figs. One year I tried drying some and developed this sweet and smoky recipe as a result. Now it's a regular at family gatherings. -Greg Fontenot, The Woodlands, Texas

This is a wonderful recipe that I found in Cooking Light Magazine. It's easy to prepare, few ingredients and has a beautiful presentation. I've served this with wild rice and steamed green beans with garlic. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Butterfly the pork by slicing it in half lengthwise, cutting to, but not through, the other side. Open the halves (like a book), laying pork flat.
- Place pork between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
- Sprinkle the figs and blue cheese over the pork, leaving about a 1/2-inch margin around the outside edges. Roll up the pork lengthwise, like a jelly-roll. (I tucked in the sides prior to rolling to keep stuffing in, but this is optional.) Secure at 2-inch intervals with twine. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper, and place on a foil-lined pan coated with cooking spray.
- The original recipe called for baking it at 450°F for 20 minutes, however, I've found the tenderloin to still be raw in some areas, so I've adjusted the pre-jelly cooking time to about 25-30 minutes. Use a thermometer to gauge.
- Remove the pork from the oven and brush with the melted apple jelly. Return the pork to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the thermometer reads 160°F (slightly pink). Keep an eye on the pork if cooking for longer than the additional 5 minutes because I've found the apple jelly that melts onto the pan will begin to burn.
- Remove the pork from the oven and let it stand for 10 minutes. Remove the twine and cut the pork into 1 inch slices, or to the thickness of your liking.
- Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 3 1-inch slices).

FIG AND BLUE CHEESE-STUFFED PORK TENDERLOIN
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°. Slice the pork in half lengthwise, cutting to, but not through, other side. Open the halves, laying pork flat. Place pork between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet. Sprinkle figs and blue cheese over pork, leaving a 1/2-inch margin around outside edges. Roll up the pork, jelly-roll fashion, starting with long side. Secure at 2-inch intervals with twine. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper, and place on a foil-lined jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 450° for 20 minutes. Brush jelly over the pork. Bake an additional 5 minutes or until a thermometer registers 160° (slightly pink). Let stand for 10 minutes. Discard twine; cut pork into 12 (1-inch-thick) slices.
STUFFED PORK LOIN WITH FIGS
The end result of stuffing the loin with figs is quite fabulous. The figs are imbued with the flavor of the meat. The meat gains moisture, sweetness and complexity from the figs. The presentation is considerably lovelier than an unadorned roast.

Steps:
- Put figs in hot water to soak. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Wriggle a thin, sharp knife into each end of meat, making a kind of pilot hole. Then use handle of a long wooden spoon to force a hole all the way through meat, making it as wide as your thumb.
- Drain when figs are tender but not mushy, reserving liquid. Stuff figs into roast, all the way to center from each end.
- Combine salt, pepper and rosemary and rub it all over meat. Put meat in a roasting pan and pour about half a cup of fruit-soaking liquid over it. Roast undisturbed for 20 minutes. Lower heat to 350 degrees and continue to cook, basting with pan juices (or added liquid, like wine or water, if necessary) every 15 minutes or so. When an instant-read thermometer registers 145 to 150 degrees - probably after 40 to 60 minutes - remove roast to a warm platter. (When checking meat, be sure thermometer is in meat, not fruit.)
- Let sit for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, put roasting pan on stove over one or two burners set to medium-high. If there is a lot of liquid, reduce it to about half a cup, scraping bottom of pan with a wooden spoon to release any brown bits. If pan is dry, add half a cup of wine and follow same process. When sauce has reduced, slice roast and serve with sauce.

- Butterfly pork. This may sound intimidating but it is basically cutting the piece of meat in half lengthwise but leaving the end portion uncut (making it look like an open book). Spread it out and lightly salt and pepper the inside and outside of the pork. Spread and layer the figs and blue cheese.
- Tie it up. Check out Eat Simple Food’s video showing you how to butterfly, stuff, and tie up chicken breast. Tying up meat is a breeze once you know how to do it and get enough practice. You can also use toothpicks if that's easier for you.
- Bring an oven proof skillet (cast iron is perfect) to medium high heat and add a touch of oil to lightly coat the pan. Sear on two sides for 2-3 minutes each or until brown. Flip to third side and place in oven.
