hot-oil crackling
Explanation:
Crackling seria a pururuca em si nesse contexto, então acho que dá pra ser algo do tipo: Hot-oil pork belly crackling marinated in herbs etc.

This ultimate crackling technique comes with a safety warning:
"When you hit it with that hot oil, it puffs, it blisters, and you get that super crispy glass-like chicharrón effect."
