Stovetop-seared beef short ribs simmered with veggies, herbs, and savory stock instead of baking in the oven.
Ingredients:
  • 4 pounds beef short ribs
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chopped onions
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 1 cup chopped carrots
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon dried thyme
  • 3 large bay leaves
  • 1 cup red wine
  • 8 cups beef stock
  • 0.25 cup chopped fresh parsley
Instructions:
  • Season the ribs generously with salt and pepper, then coat them in flour for a flavorful and crispy finish.
  • In a large pot over medium-high heat, heat oil. Sear ribs in small batches until browned, about 2 to 3 minutes per batch, adding more oil as necessary. Remove ribs to a plate.
  • Begin by adding the onions to the pot and sautéing for 2 minutes. Then, add the celery and carrots and sauté for 1 more minute. Season with salt and pepper before stirring in the garlic, thyme, and bay leaves. Let it cook until fragrant, approximately 1 minute.
  • Pour wine into the pot and bring to a boil, deglazing by scraping up the browned bits with a wooden spoon. Add stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, add ribs, and simmer until meat is tender and sauce has thickened, about 2 hours.
  • Remove and discard the bay leaves, then stir in the parsley before serving.
