Banana Leaf Wrapped Pork and Chicken with Fig Sauce

Banana leaves are such a fun way to bake or grill proteins! Here, I did two versions. The first is an Herb Marinated Pork Tenderloin which marinated overnight in the refrigerator with dried herbs or oregano, thyme, basil, and some added ingredients such as fresh garlic.

The second version was chicken drumsticks and two chicken breasts. I did not even add salt and pepper because the flavor is in the waterloupe, red bell pepper, and jalapeno. Warpped in banana leaves, of course.
