Ingredients

Method

Sprinkle pork with half of the pepper. In Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat; brown pork all over. Transfer to slow cooker.

Drain fat from Dutch oven; cook chopped onion, garlic, ginger, five-spice powder and remaining pepper over medium heat, stirring often, until onion is softened, 5 minutes. Add broth and bring to boil, scraping up brown bits; pour over pork. Add rice wine and pearl onions; stir to combine.

Cover and cook on low until pork is tender, 5 to 6 hours. Skim off fat.

Transfer pork to cutting board; cover and keep warm for 15 minutes before cutting any strings and cutting across the grain into chop-size slices.

Move onions to 1 side of slow cooker. Whisk cornstarch with 1/4 cup water until smooth; whisk into slow cooker. Cook, covered, on high until thickened, about 15 minutes.

Serve with pork.
