Pork Belly Chili Spiced Brussels Sprouts
Crispy and tender pork belly with the best roasted brussels sprouts. Serve warm along with your favorite chicken or steak – this goes great with roasted chicken, pork ribs or a steak.
Did I mention, there is less than 5 ingredients? Wild, right?!?!
I truly believe in letting the natural flavors of the ingredients come through. So when there is a shorter ingredients list, that’s what happens.
One spice blend with all the spices.
Chili powder is a powerhouse.
Usually it has over 5 different dried spices in it to create a very balance blend that can be used in so many recipes.
- Chili Pepper
- Cumin
- Oregano
- Coriander
- Garlic
- Allspice
- Clove
I love to add smoked paprika to this mix, since I can’t forget all the smoky flavor – plus with Pork Belly Chili Spiced Brussels Sprouts that smoke flavor adds so much!
What to make along with this recipe?
I thought you would never ask.
Lemon Herb Chicken Skewers would be a great addition with the Pork Belly Chili Spiced Brussels Sprouts – by keeping it light with the chicken, lemon and herbs.
Steak and Brussels Sprouts go so well together – check out the Pine Nut Garlic Basil Oil Steak recipe.
Keep the pork theme going with Oven Baked Chipotle BBQ Pork Ribs and the comforting Apple + Rosemary Pork Roast with Potatoes.
