Braised Boneless Short Ribs

Jalapeño Mashed Potatoes

Caramelized Onion Sauce

Method

Braised Boneless Short Ribs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Season the boneless short ribs with salt and black pepper on all sides.

  2. 2

    Sear the Ribs

    In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the short ribs on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the ribs and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté Aromatics

    In the same pot, reduce the heat to medium and add chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Deglaze the Pot

    Pour in the red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Bring to a simmer and let reduce by half.

  5. 5

    Add Broth and Herbs

    Return the short ribs to the pot, then add beef broth, thyme, and bay leaves. Bring to a boil.

  6. 6

    Braise the Ribs

    Cover the pot and transfer to the preheated oven. Braise for 2-3 hours until the ribs are tender.

Jalapeño Mashed Potatoes

  1. 7

    Boil the Potatoes

    In a large pot, add cubed potatoes and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 8

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, milk, minced jalapeño, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

Caramelized Onion Sauce

  1. 9

    Caramelize the Onions

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add thinly sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally until golden brown and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 10

    Add Flavor

    Stir in brown sugar and balsamic vinegar. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, adjusting with salt and black pepper to taste.
