Beef Shortribs

Yukon Mashed Potatoes

Grilled Vegetable Medley

Method

Preparation of Beef Shortribs

  1. 1

    Sear the Shortribs

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the beef short ribs with salt and pepper, then sear them on all sides until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pot and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Aromatics

    In the same pot, add the chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions are translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Deglaze and Braise

    Pour in the red wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to deglaze. Add the beef broth, rosemary, and thyme. Return the short ribs to the pot, cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 2-3 hours until tender.

Preparation of Yukon Mashed Potatoes

  1. 4

    Cook the Potatoes

    In a large pot, add the peeled and cubed Yukon Gold potatoes. Cover with water, add salt, and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 5

    Mash and Mix

    Drain the potatoes and return to the pot. Add butter, heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

Preparation of Grilled Vegetable Medley

  1. 6

    Grill the Vegetables

    In a bowl, toss the sliced bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat and grill the vegetables until tender and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the tender beef shortribs on a plate with a generous scoop of Yukon mashed potatoes and a side of grilled vegetable medley.
