Pork Belly

Method

Braised Pork Belly

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork Belly

    Season the pork belly with salt and black pepper. In a large pot, heat a small amount of oil over medium heat and sear the pork belly on all sides until golden brown.

  2. 2

    Braise the Pork

    Add garlic, bay leaves, chicken broth, soy sauce, and honey to the pot. Bring to a simmer, cover, and reduce heat to low. Braise for 2 to 3 hours, or until the pork is tender.

  3. 3

    Cool and Slice

    Once cooked, remove the pork belly from the pot and let it cool slightly. Slice into thick pieces.

Grilled Vegetables

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In a large bowl, toss the zucchini, bell peppers, and asparagus with olive oil, salt, pepper, and balsamic vinegar.

  2. 5

    Grill the Vegetables

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes or until tender and slightly charred.

Plating

  1. 6

    Serve

    On a plate, arrange the grilled vegetables and top them with slices of braised pork belly. Drizzle with some of the braising liquid if desired.
