Preheat oven to 350'F

Combine and puree roasted garlic, fig preserves, thyme, and balsamic vinegar in a small food processor. I use the chopper attachment of my Kitchenaid Hand Blender.

Season pork with salt and pepper

Heat olive oil in ovenproof skillet over high heat. I used my large cast-iron skillet

Sear all sides of pork loin in hot skillet

Once pork is seared, coat it with the fig/garlic puree.

Put in oven and roast until thermometer reads 160', or 25ish minutes per pound.

Once cooked, remove the roast to a cutting board and tent with aluminum foil.

Add port and figs to skillet and cook until port is syrupy, about 5 minutes.

Slice pork and serve with figs.

Drizzle port syrup over all.

Bon Appetit!
