Ingredients

Servings:4
  • 1 1/2 lbs Pork belly (sliced 1/4 inch thick)
  • 3 tbsp Gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 2 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp Honey or brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp Mirin (rice wine)
  • 1 tbsp Toasted sesame oil
  • 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 1 tsp Ginger (grated)
  • 1 tbsp Gochugaru (Korean chili flakes)(optional)
  • 1/2 tsp Black pepper
  • 2 stalks Green onions (chopped)
  • 1 tsp Toasted sesame seeds(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large mixing bowl, combine gochujang, soy sauce, honey, mirin, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, gochugaru, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Whisk the marinade ingredients until smooth and the honey is fully incorporated.

  3. 3

    Add the sliced pork belly to the bowl and massage the marinade into each slice by hand (use gloves) to ensure even coating.

  4. 4

    Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, though 2-4 hours is recommended for deeper flavor penetration.

  5. 5

    Heat a non-stick grill pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat with a light coating of oil.

  6. 6

    Place the pork belly slices in a single layer, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.

  7. 7

    Grill for 3-4 minutes per side until the edges are slightly charred and the fat is rendered and crispy.

  8. 8

    Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving with lettuce wraps and rice.
