- Score the skin of the pork belly in a diamond pattern, taking care not to cut into the meat.
- Rub the pork belly all over with the salt, pepper, and minced garlic.
- Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe pan over medium-high heat. Add the pork belly, skin side down, and cook until the skin is golden and crispy.
- Flip the pork belly over and add the white wine to the pan.
- Cover the pan with foil and transfer to the preheated oven. Cook for 3 hours, or until the pork belly is tender.
- Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C). Remove the foil and cook for an additional 30 minutes, or until the skin is extra crispy.
- Let the pork belly rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
