Ingredients

• 
  Pork Belly (skin on)

  1.5 pounds

• 
  Olive Oil

  1 tablespoon

• 
  Sea Salt

  1 tablespoon

• 
  Garlic Powder

  1 teaspoon

• 
  Paprika

  1 teaspoon

• 
  Black Pepper

  1/2 teaspoon

• 
  Spices or Seasonings (of your choice, optional)

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Using a sharp knife, score the skin of the pork belly with shallow diagonal cuts, making a crisscross pattern. Ensure that you only cut through the skin and not into the meat.
3. In a small bowl, combine the sea salt, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and any additional spices or seasonings you prefer.
4. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork belly, ensuring it is evenly coated on all sides.
5. Place the pork belly on a wire rack set inside a baking dish or roasting pan, with the skin side facing up. The wire rack will allow for better air circulation and help achieve a crispy texture.
6. Drizzle the olive oil over the skin, using your hands to spread it evenly.
7. Bake the pork belly in the preheated oven for approximately 2 hours, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown. If needed, you can switch to the broil setting for the last 5 minutes to achieve extra crispiness.
8. Once cooked, remove the pork belly from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
9. Cut the pork belly into thick slices and serve hot. You can pair it with a side salad or steamed vegetables if desired.
10. Enjoy the crispy and flavorful Keto Crispy Pork Belly!
