A unique take on the classic Filipino Adobo, featuring cubed pork belly seared for flavor and texture, then braised with a flavorful marinade that includes vinegar, soy sauce, and optional vegetables like onions for a hearty one-pot meal.
1: Season pork belly with SPG and fry until a nice crust forms.
2: Remove pork from the pan and sear minced garlic and half chopped onion.
3: Add the marinade consisting of vinegar, soy sauce, and water to the pan.
4: Add bay leaves and black pepper to the marinade.
5: Return the seared meat to the pan, cover, and place in a preheated 350°F oven for about 45 minutes until the sauce thickens and the meat is tender.
6: Add brown sugar to blend the flavors along with any veggies like onions, and do a final simmer to soften.
