A Satisfying Greek-Inspired Ribs Recipe
What Started it all:
Ribs, Garlic, soy sauce, frying pan
As the warm sun sets over the Mediterranean, I find myself craving the rich flavors of Greece. Today, I'll share with you a recipe that combines the tender comfort of ribs with the bold, savory essence of garlic and soy sauce. This dish is sure to become a staple in your kitchen, perfect for a cozy evening with loved ones.
Ingredients
- 2 racks of pork ribs (about 2 pounds)
- 6 cloves of garlic, peeled and minced
- 1/4 cup of soy sauce
- 1 large frying pan with a heavy bottom (stainless steel or cast iron)
Instructions
- Prepare the ribs: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs (this will help the rub penetrate the meat). Cut the ribs into a St. Louis-style cut, if desired.
- Mix the garlic and soy sauce: In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic and soy sauce. Stir until the garlic is well coated.
- Sear the ribs: Heat the large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the ribs, bone-side down, and sear for 5 minutes. Flip the ribs over and sear for an additional 5 minutes.
- Finish with the garlic-soy glaze: Brush the garlic-soy mixture evenly over the ribs, making sure to coat all surfaces. Transfer the ribs to a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the meat is tender and caramelized.
- Serve and enjoy: Cut the ribs into individual portions and serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley or thyme, if desired.
