How to cook deliciously - Roasted Pork Belly

1 . Stage

Combine paprika, oregano, cumin, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, turmeric, and cayenne pepper in a bowl; rub onto the non-fat side of pork belly. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.

2 . Stage

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

3 . Stage

Remove plastic wrap from pork belly and place pork belly, fat-side up, on the prepared baking sheet. Make shallow cuts into the fat of the pork belly in a checkered pattern. Rub lemon juice into the fat.
