Ingredients

1 kg Pork neck
½ teaspoon Dried basil
½ teaspoon Black pepper
2 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoon Soy sauce
1 tablespoon Your favorite herbs and spices (I used pink pepper, red pepper, dry garlic, dry ginger, sea salt, allspice, tarragon, and rosemary.)

Instructions

Slice the pork into 3 cm thick pieces.
Pierce your meat with a fork or using a special tool.
Put it in a container for marinating. Pour 20 ml of olive oil and 30 ml of soy sauce.
Add all-purpose meat seasoning or your favorite spices. I used pink pepper, red pepper, dry garlic, dry ginger, sea salt, allspice, tarragon, and rosemary.
Cover with cling film and marinate for two hours at room temperature or leave it overnight in the fridge.
Once marinated, take out the meat. If taken out of the refrigerator, leave it at room temperature for about 30 mins to an hour.
Set your 380 °F/195 °C and preheat for a couple of minutes. Once the air fryer has heated up, place your meat in the air fryer basket.
Flip your pork slices at the 4th- and 8th-minute mark.
After 12 minutes, rest your air-fried pork neck for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows for the juices to spread over the meat. When sliced, the meat should be slightly pink or light brown inside, depending on your preferred doneness.
Add your favorite side dish and enjoy!

Notes

Note: Different fryer models have various temperature ranges, and some models may cook faster or slower than others. Always make it a habit to read the user manual of your air fryer to understand the specific temperature and time settings for your model.

I recommend cooking pork neck in an air fryer at around 350°F to 400°F (175°C to 205°C). If your air fryer tends to cook faster, you may need to lower the temperature by 10-15°F. On the other hand, if it tends to cook slower, you may need to crank up the heat by 10-15°F.

If you prefer your pork slices to be crispier, you may want to increase the cooking time by about 3-5 minutes. If you prefer your pork neck to be more tender and juicy, you may want to reduce the cooking time slightly.
