Made the marinade with red wine vinegar because it's what I had on hand... not a juice kind of girl, so I left it out. Marinated pork for an hour... DELICIOUS DELICIOUS DELICIOUS!!!! This is definitely a keeper!!!

I did a variation on this and marinated some chops and pan roasted them with the figs which got a quick toss in the marinade. (note - put figs in for the last minute, 30 secs on each side) The sauce was really really tasty. Next time I'd add some chili pepper flakes for some zing. Overall, it was a winner!

Nice simple flavors and super easy to make. The pork was a little tough, so next time I will marinate it longer than the 30 minutes called for. At the same time, I grilled chunks of goat cheese which went well with the figs.
