Garlic Pork with Caramelized Onions

• 500g diced pork
• 2 medium onions
• 3 cloves garlic
• to taste salt and black pepper

👨‍🍳 Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Step 1: Heat a skillet over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the diced pork and sear for a few minutes until browned on all sides, then remove and set aside.

2. 2

   Step 2: In the same skillet, add more oil if needed, and sauté the chopped onions until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for one more minute until fragrant. Then, sprinkle in a bit of brown sugar to caramelize the onions for a few more minutes, stirring constantly.

3. 3

   Step 3: Return the pork to the skillet with the onions and garlic, season with salt and pepper to taste, and cook for a few more minutes until the pork is well coated in the sauce and heated through. Serve hot.

💡 Chef's tip

Sear the pork at 220°C for 90 seconds per side: the high heat triggers the Maillard reaction, forming a crust without letting the interior exceed 55°C, preserving juiciness and flavor.
