Equipment

  • 1 large baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Aluminum foil
  • Large frying pan
  • Kitchen tongs
  • Small saucepan
  • Mixing bowl
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Food processor or blender
  • Grill or grill pan

Ingredients
  

For the pork belly:

  • 1 lb pork belly - sliced into 6 equal pieces
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 6 slider buns

For the peach and jalapeno slaw:

  • 1 peach - sliced into thin strips
  • 1 jalapeno - seeded and diced
  • 1/4 cup cilantro - chopped
  • 1/4 cup red onion - diced
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp honey
  • Pinch of salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and place the pork belly slices on top.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Sprinkle the spice mixture over both sides of the pork belly slices.
  • Bake the pork belly for 1 hour, then remove from the oven and cover with aluminum foil. Return to the oven and bake for an additional hour, or until the pork belly is tender and crispy.
  • In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork belly slices and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until crispy. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Cook over low heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the dressing is smooth.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced peach, diced jalapeno, chopped cilantro, and red onion. Pour the dressing over the slaw and mix well.
  • Slice the slider buns in half and toast them on a grill or grill pan. Place a piece of crispy pork belly on the bottom half of each bun, then top with a spoonful of the peach and jalapeno slaw. Place the top half of the bun on top.
  • Serve the sliders immediately and enjoy!

Notes

For a spicier slaw, leave the seeds in the jalapeno.
You can also use chicken or beef instead of pork belly for the sliders.
Feel free to add your favorite toppings, such as avocado, pickles, or cheese.
If you don't have a grill or grill pan, you can toast the buns in the oven or a regular frying pan.
