Ingredients
  

4 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced

1 cup of your favorite non-alcoholic beer

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon sugar

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

8 ounces salted pork belly, diced into small cubes

Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions
 

Cook the Pork Belly: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the diced salted pork belly. Cook until crispy and browned, about 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently. Once done, remove the pork from the skillet and set it aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.

    Sauté the Onions: In the same skillet with the rendered pork fat, add the olive oil and sliced onions. Sauté them over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and translucent, about 10 minutes.

      Caramelize the Onions: Add sugar to the onions and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes until they begin to caramelize and turn golden brown.

        Deglaze with Beer: Pour in the non-alcoholic beer slowly to deglaze the skillet, scraping the browned bits off the bottom. Add the balsamic vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and reduce the heat to low.

          Simmer: Allow the mixture to simmer gently for about 15 minutes, or until the onions are tender and most of the beer has evaporated, leaving a rich, savory flavor.

            Combine: Add the crispy pork belly back into the skillet and stir to combine everything. Allow to cook together for another 5 minutes for the flavors to meld.

              Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
