Fennel encrusted pork belly

I used a 14 oz piece of pork belly..that serves 1 person.
Remove the skin from the pork belly..you can scald it and pull it off. I didn't realize you were suppose to remove it..so I did after I had cooked it a bit.

Make a mixture of 2 garlic cloves
1 tbs fresh rosemary
1 tsp ground coriander(not cumin)
2 tsp fennel seeds crushed
salt and pepper

Score the pork belly on the fat side with 1/2 inch criss cross slices..work the spice mix into the cuts..salt and pepper.

Cook at 300 for 3 hours..I broiled the top for just a few minutes about 1/2 way in..and then turned the oven back to 300.

Let it rest for 15 minutes..slice and enjoy..
