About

This is one of my favorite meals to make very quickly for my wife. It is such an easy dinner concept that can be paired with just about any vegetable and some rice. The best thing I love about pork belly is its versatility. You can cure it for bacon, roast it for porchetta, or cube it and make this sweet and sour pork belly skillet. Inspired by Chinese flavors and dishes, this recipe is sure to leave you wanting more!
