Place the pieces skin-side down in a dry, non-stick pan, cover with a lid, and cook over low heat for 10 minutes to slowly release the fat.

Turn the pieces to fry the other sides until golden and crispy. Once ready, cut into bite-sized pieces and serve topped with your preferred barbecue seasoning or chili powder.
