Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams pork belly
- 3 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 medium, finely chopped red onion
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 inch piece, minced fresh ginger
- 2 finely chopped green chilies
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
Start by boiling the pork belly in a pot of water for about 30 minutes until tender. Drain and allow to cool slightly.
Chop the boiled pork into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add the chopped pork and fry until it turns crispy and golden brown, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add another tablespoon of coconut oil. Sauté the garlic, ginger, and onion until they become fragrant and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the crispy pork back to the pan, along with coconut aminos, lemon juice, green chilies, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir-fry everything together for another 5 minutes, ensuring the pork is well-coated with the sauce and the flavors are combined.
Transfer the pork sisig to a preheated sizzling plate or skillet to keep it hot and emphasize the 'sizzling' effect.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving. Enjoy your Paleo Sizzling Pork Sisig while hot!
