Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 pound pork belly 1" pieces, skinless, some fat removed
  • 1 tablespoon dry rub

Instructions

  • Cut pork belly into 1" pieces. Sprinkle on the dry rub.
  • Place the pork belly bites in the air fryer basket, leaving room for the air to circulate.
  • Air fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 8 minutes then turn them over and cook for 2-5 minutes more. Note that every air fryer cooks at a different rate so yours might need more or less time that mine. Keep a close eye on them.
  • Remove and enjoy with sauce, if desired.

Notes

  • If your pork belly comes with skin on, remove the skin before cooking.
  • You might also want to remove some of the fat, if the pork belly you have is especially fatty.
  • Be sure to watch these closely as every air fryer cooks at a different rate. They might not need 8 minutes in your air fryer.
  • These are best eaten right away. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
