Pork Belly Stir-Fry

Step 1

Slice the 1 lb pork belly into thin strips. Peel and slice the 1 carrot, 1 onion, and 1 zucchini into similar-sized pieces. Mince the 3 garlic cloves.

Step 2

Heat the 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the pork belly and cook until browned and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and carrot. Stir-fry over medium-high heat until slightly softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4

Add the zucchini and minced garlic. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until the zucchini is tender-crisp.

Step 5

Return the pork to the skillet. Add the 2 tbsp soy sauce and 0.5 tsp salt. Toss everything together and cook for 1-2 minutes until well coated and heated through. Serve hot.

Step 6

Optional: add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a splash of rice vinegar for extra flavor.
