INGREDIENTS
4 oz trimmed Pork Belly (braised)
1 cup Brussels Sprouts, halved
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove, minced
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Score the trimmed pork belly lightly on the fat side and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
In a heavy pot or Dutch oven, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork belly on all sides until nicely browned.
Reduce the heat to low, add the minced garlic, and allow it to infuse with the pork belly for about 1 minute.
Pour in a splash of water or low-sodium broth if desired for extra moisture, cover the pot, and let the pork belly slow-braise on low heat for about 1.5 hours until tender.
While the pork belly is finishing braising, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet.
Roast the Brussels sprouts in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until they are caramelized and crisp on the edges.
Plate the pork belly by slicing it into portions and serve alongside the roasted Brussels sprouts. Enjoy a harmonious blend of tender meat and vibrant vegetables.
