Steps

1 hour
  1. 1

    Sprinkle the bread pieces with salted water using your fingers. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for about 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    While the bread rests, cut the pork belly and chorizo into cubes. Sauté them in a skillet over medium-low heat (about 3–4 out of 9) with a little oil until they release their fat.

    While the chorizo and pork belly cook, dice the red and green bell peppers (I like them in larger pieces).

  4. 4

    Once the chorizo and pork belly have released their fat, remove them from the pan and set aside. In the remaining fat, add the whole unpeeled garlic cloves, making a small cut in each.

    When the garlic is golden, add the diced peppers and keep cooking over medium-low heat.

  6. 6

    When the peppers are soft enough to break with a spatula and no longer crunchy, add 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika and stir gently, making sure it doesn't burn.

  7. 7

    Immediately add the moistened bread pieces and cook, stirring constantly, until the crumbs are loose and golden (you can increase the heat to medium-high, but watch so they don't burn).

  8. 8

    Once the bread is golden, add back the chorizo and pork belly, mix well, and it's ready!

    You can serve this with a fried egg or with fruit like grapes, orange, melon, etc.
