Keto Italian Pork Belly Slices
These Keto pork belly slices are oven-baked until tender, then finished under the broiler to crisp and brown the fat. Our easy Keto pork recipe is prepared with pork belly slices, tomato sauce, aromatic oregano, sweet balsamic vinegar, and a hint of maple-flavored syrup. These make a great Keto-friendly protein option served with your favorite low carb sides.
How to Make It
Step 1
Add the syrup, balsamic, tomato sauce, garlic powder, oregano, salt and pepper to a small bowl. Mix well to combine. You may adjust seasonings as desired to suit your tastes.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Arrange the pork belly slices side by side in a medium-sized oven tray and pat dry. Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the pork belly. Cover with foil and transfer to the oven for 70 minutes until tender and the fat is soft.
Step 3
Preheat the broiler to high. Line a grill tray with foil. Arrange the pork belly slices side by side on the foil. You can brush over any liquid that remains in the oven tray. Transfer to the broiler and cook for 5-6 minutes or until the fat is bubbling and golden. Serve with your preferred Keto sides.
