Tender Slow-Braised Pork Belly with Crispy Roasted Vegetables
Savor a beautifully slow-braised pork belly paired with a crispy medley of roasted chickpeas and colorful vegetables. Each bite brings a satisfying contrast between the melt-in-your-mouth pork and the crunchy, caramelized edges of Brussels sprouts and carrots, accented by aromatic herbs for a balanced, hearty meal.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Pork Belly
1 cup cooked Chickpeas
100 g Brussels Sprouts
100 g Carrots
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Score the skin of the pork belly lightly and season with salt, pepper, and finely chopped rosemary.
In a heavy pot, sear the pork belly on a medium-high heat until the edges begin to crisp, about 2-3 minutes each side.
Add a splash of water or broth, reduce heat to low, cover the pot and let it slow-braise for about 1.5 to 2 hours until tender.
While the pork belly is braising, toss Brussels sprouts and carrot slices with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until edges are crispy and caramelized.
Rinse and drain cooked chickpeas, then add them to the mix of vegetables during the last 10 minutes of roasting to crisp up lightly.
Once the pork belly is tender, remove from the pot and slice into bite-sized pieces.
Plate a portion of sliced pork belly alongside a generous serving of the crispy vegetable and chickpea medley. Serve warm.
