Cuisine: American
Cooking time: 30 minutes
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 2 pounds pork belly
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 medium apples, peeled and diced
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
Instructions
- 1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- 2. Score the skin of the pork belly in a crisscross pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat, and season generously with sea salt and black pepper.
- 3. In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and sear the pork belly skin-side down until crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
- 4. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the pork belly is cooked through and the skin is crispy.
- 5. While the pork is cooking, combine the diced apples and cinnamon in a saucepan over medium heat, cooking until the apples are soft and caramelized, about 10 minutes. Serve the pork belly sliced with the warm apple compote on the side.
