Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

One (1 to 1 1/4 pounds) pork tenderloin or center-cut pork filet
2 tablespoons olive oil
Fine kosher or sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
4 long rosemary branches or wooden skewers, soaked in water for at least 15 minutes
12 small ripe figs
4 ounces goat cheese
2 teaspoons honey
1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary

Steps:

  • Prepare a hot fire in your grill. Brush the tenderloin with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Remove the skewers from the water. Pierce the figs through the middle with a metal skewer or ice pick to make a hole. Then thread 3 figs onto each rosemary or wooden skewer. Lightly brush the figs with olive oil.
  • Place the pork tenderloin directly over the fire. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side (the center-cut pork loin filet for 5 to 7 minutes per side), turning a quarter turn at a time, until an instant-read meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 140°F for medium and the meat is juicy and slightly pink in the center.
  • At the same time, place the skewered figs over the fire, turning several times and cooking for about 5 to 6 minutes until they are heated through. When they're caramelized and soft, remove the skewers from the heat and keep warm.
  • Let the pork rest for about 5 minutes, and then cut on the diagonal into 1- to 2-inch-thick slices.
  • To serve, arrange 3 slices of pork with a skewer of figs on each plate, all topped with crumbled goat cheese, drizzled with 1/2 teaspoon honey, and a sprinkled with chopped rosemary.
