Pork belly, extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, garlic, fresh rosemary, fresh sage, dried oregano, salt, black pepper.
How to make it keto
Confirm no sugar or honey is used in the marinade or glaze. Request keto-friendly sides (e.g., grilled asparagus or cauliflower puree) instead of traditional carb-heavy accompaniments.
