Ingredients

  • 1 lb pork belly skin-on, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
  • 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1.5 lb whole potatoes (small or medium), halved
  • 2 medium yellow onions, sliced into thick rings
  • 2 tbsp white vinegar
  • 3 tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. 1

    Boil potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Pat pork belly dry. Heat a large skillet over medium-high; lay slices skin-side down without crowding.

  3. 3

    Cook skin-side down 4–5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy. Flip and cook 2 minutes more until meat is warm.

  4. 4

    Transfer pork to a plate. In the same skillet, melt 2 tbsp butter over medium. Add onion rings and cook 3 minutes until soft and lightly caramelized.

  5. 5

    Whisk remaining 1 tbsp butter with parsley, vinegar, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.

  6. 6

    Serve pork, potatoes, and onions together. Drizzle parsley sauce over the pork.
