Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lb pork belly strips
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 cup BBQ sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 °F (190 °c).
- Whisk together the olive oil, salt and pepper, then brush the mixture onto both sides of the pork belly strips.
- Place pork belly strips on a baking tray and bake them for 15 minutes.
- Remove from oven. Baste the strips BBQ sauce. Then turn them over and baste the other side.
- Return to the oven another 10-15 minutes. When they are golden and bubbly and fat has become translucent, they are ready to remove from the oven. They may need more or less time depending on the thickness of the strips.
- Remove from the oven and serve with rice or your favorite side dish.

Notes
- For easier cleanup, line your baking tray with parchment paper or tin foil.
- You can omit or substitute the BBQ sauce, if desired. I sometimes use Char Sui or Hoisin instead of BBQ sauce, depending on what I'm eating the pork belly with.
- Thicker or thinner slices than the ones I used will take more or less time to bake, so keep your eye on them to determine when they're done.
- These pork belly strips make a lot of grease, so be prepared for a sea of hot grease at the bottom of your baking tray. Be careful not to burn yourself when removing from the oven.
- You can leave the BBQ sauce off the strips if you want and just serve them with salt and pepper for seasonings. Or use another glaze that you like.
