Instructions
Prepare the Ingredients
Separate lettuce leaves and wash thoroughly then pat dry. Slice garlic thinly and mix sesame oil with salt and pepper in a small dipping bowl.
Heat the Pan
Heat a heavy skillet or grill pan over medium high heat until very hot. No oil is needed as pork belly releases its own fat during cooking.
Grill the Pork
Place pork belly slices in the hot pan and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown and slightly crispy at the edges. Add garlic slices to the pan and cook until golden.
Assemble and Serve
Cut grilled pork into bite sized pieces using scissors. Place a piece of pork and garlic into a lettuce leaf and dip into the sesame oil mixture before eating.
