1. For chutney, stir together the cranberries or cranberry sauce, juice, figs, sugar, rosemary, and salt, and freshly ground black pepper to taste in a small heavy saucepan. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, 5 to 8 minutes or until chutney is of desired consistency, stirring occasionally. Set aside.

2. Meanwhile, trim fat from meat. Cut meat crosswise into six 1-ounce pieces about 1 inch thick. Press with palm of hand to an even thickness. Cook the pork in hot oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes or until pork is slightly pink in center, turning once.

3. To serve, divide the pork medaillons between 2 dinner plates. Serve with long grain and wild rice, if desired. Spoon some of the warm chutney over pork. Pass remaining chutney. Makes 2 servings.
