Fig and pork just go together: Fig has a sweetness, subtle and delightful, that adds tender flavor to scrumptious pork, which comes to you here already in medallion form to save you time and energy. And speaking of time, this meal comes together in less than fifteen minutes. Quick and flavorful, those are adjectives we think always should go together.
