Citrus Glazed Pork Belly Recipes

Steps:

• Mix orange juice, onion, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, brown sugar, salt, oregano, cumin, lime zest, pepper, and bay leaves in a heavy Dutch oven. Add pork shoulder; turn to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator, 4 hours to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Remove Dutch oven from the refrigerator and cover tightly with aluminum foil.
• Bake pork in the preheated oven until heated through, about 1 1/2 hours. Flip pork carefully. Replace foil and bake for 1 hour more. Remove aluminum foil. Continue baking uncovered, turning once halfway through, until pork falls apart and marinade is reduced, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Remove pork from oven and let rest for 20 minutes. Shred pork in the Dutch oven using 2 forks; mix shredded pork with the reduced marinade. Discard bay leaves.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the red onion; cook, stirring, until golden, 5 minutes. Add the farro, 2 1/2 cups water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium; simmer until the farro is just tender, 25 minutes. Stir in the Brussels sprouts and cook until tender, 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Mix the lime and orange juices with the honey. Season the pork with the cumin, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and oranges; cook, turning the pork, until browned, 5 minutes. Flip the orange wedges; add the juice mixture.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven; bake until a thermometer inserted into the pork registers 145 degrees F, about 15 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes, then slice and drizzle with the pan juices. Serve with the oranges and farro; top with pomegranate seeds.

Steps:

• Cut the pork belly into roughly 1-inch (2 ½ cm) cubes.
• Bring 1 liter of water to a boil in a pot, then add the pork, ginger, onion, and garlic, and cook for 3-4 minutes.
• Remove the pork from the water using a slotted spoon and drain on a plate lined with a paper towel. Discard the remaining water and vegetables.
• Clean and dry the pot, then return it to high heat and add the olive oil. Return the pork to the pan and cook until browned. The oil may pop and splatter, so be careful.
• Add the brown sugar, then reduce the heat to low. Stir continuously until the sugar has melted, caramelized, and coated the pork evenly.
• Immediately add the soy sauces and rice wine, stirring continuously for 5-6 minutes more, or until the liquid has reduced to a thick glaze.
• Add the remaining 250 milliliters of water. Stir, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes. Make sure the mixture is at a low simmer, not boiling. Stir every 10 minutes or so, adding more water if the pot is getting dry.
• Remove the lid. The sauce should coat the pork in a very thick glaze. If it is too runny, continue to stir, uncovered, until the liquid has reduced.
• Serve immediately over a bowl of rice and sprinkle with sliced green onions.

Steps:

• Pulse the garlic, oregano, thyme, coriander and cumin seeds, bay leaves, 2 tablespoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a food processor to make a thick paste. Trim off all but a thin layer of fat from the pork, then make deep slits all over the roast (about every 2 inches) with a paring knife. Rub the spice paste over the pork and into the slits.
• Mix the citrus juices, Worcestershire sauce and olive oil in a large glass bowl. Submerge the pork in the marinade and top with the onions and reserved orange and lemon peels. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 8 hours or up to 2 days. Bring to room temperature 1 hour before roasting.
• Preheat the oven to 450. Remove the citrus peels from the bowl and refrigerate. Place the pork on a rack in a large roasting pan (reserve the marinade and onions); roast, uncovered, about 1 hour. Add the marinade to the pan and pile the onions on top of the meat. Cover with foil, lower the oven temperature to 350 and roast 2 more hours. Uncover, place the citrus peels around the pork and continue to roast, basting occasionally, until the meat browns and a thermometer inserted into the bottom half registers 190, 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours.
• Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Meanwhile, skim any excess fat from the pan juices. Slice the pork and serve with the onion and pan juices. Garnish with citrus peels.

Steps:

• For the pork belly: Score the skin of the pork belly in a criss-cross pattern with a sharp knife. Rub the sea salt into the pork skin and set aside for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 220°C Wipe the salt off the pork skin with kitchen paper and dry well. Put the pork belly in a metal roasting pan, large enough to fit it and season with salt and pepper.
• Roast for 30 minutes. Reduce temperature to 190C and roast for another 2 hours, brushing generously with Spicy Sauce every 1/2 hour. Carefully turn the pork over, brush generously with sauce and roast for another 20-30 minutes, or until the skin is crisp.
• Remove the pork from the oven, cover loosely with foil and set aside to rest for 15 minutes. Slice the pork and drizzle with whatever Spicy Citrus Sauce is left, as desired.
• Spicy Citrus Sauce: Put all the Sauce ingredients into a mini-processor and zap them together to finely chop garlic. Pour into a small saucepan and cook, stirring, over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil and simmer for about 10, or until syrupy. Season to taste.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown pork chops in 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Combine the honey, lemon juice, orange juice, soy sauce and pepper; pour over pork., Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°, turning once. Remove pork chops to a serving plate; keep warm. Whisk cold butter into cooking juices until melted. Serve with pork. Garnish with orange slices.
