Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat the pork belly dry with paper towels, especially the skin. Season all sides generously with salt and pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Place pork skin-side up on a sheet pan. Roast at 400°F for 20 minutes until skin is crackling and golden.

  3. Step 3

    While the pork roasts, slice the cucumber, tomatoes, and bell pepper into thin rounds. Chop the green onions.

  4. Step 4

    In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar with a pinch of salt. Toss the sliced vegetables with this dressing.

  5. Step 5

    Remove the pork from the oven when skin crackles and meat is cooked through. Rest for 2 minutes, then slice.

  6. Step 6

    Arrange sliced pork on a plate with the fresh vegetable slaw. Serve immediately.
