Wine Braised Short Ribs With Lemon Pasta Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the short ribs on a sheet pan, brush the tops with olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 1/2 tablespoons salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Roast for 20 minutes and remove from the oven. Reduce the temperature to 325 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a large (12-inch) Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, over medium heat. Add the leeks, celery, onions, and carrots and cook over medium to medium-high heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook for one minute. Add the wine, bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes, until the liquid is reduced. Add the stock, tomatoes, Guinness, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper.
• Place the ribs in the pot, along with the juices and seasonings from the sheet pan. Bring to a boil, cover, and cook in the oven for one hour. Uncover and cook for one more hour, until the meat is very tender.
• Remove the short ribs to a plate with a slotted spoon and discard the thyme bundle and any bones that have separated from the meat. Simmer the sauce on the stove for 20 minutes, until reduced. Skim some of the fat off the top and discard. Return the ribs to the pot, heat for 5 minutes, and taste for seasonings. Serve hot in shallow bowls, with a toasted baguette and extra sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 275 degrees. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season short ribs on all sides with salt and pepper. Working in batches, sear short ribs on all sides until deeply and evenly browned, 6 to 8 minutes per batch. Transfer browned short ribs to a large plate and continue with remaining ribs.
• Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of remaining fat, leaving the good browned bits behind. Reduce heat to medium, and add garlic, cut side down and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add onion, celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and continue to cook until vegetables are softened but not yet browned, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add tomato paste and stir to coat. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until tomato paste has started to caramelize a bit on the bottom and up the edges of the pot, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add red wine and, using a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned or caramelized bits. Let this simmer 2 to 3 minutes, just to take the edge off and reduce a bit. Stir in beef stock along with thyme. Using tongs, return short ribs to the pot, along with any juices that have accumulated, nestling them in there so that they are submerged (if they are just barely covered, nestle them bone side up so that all the meat is submerged, adding more beef stock or water as necessary to cover). Bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to oven.
• Cook, undisturbed, until short ribs are meltingly tender and falling off the bone (you should be able to shred the meat with a fork), 3½ to 4 hours.
• Using tongs, remove the ribs from the pot, taking care (for presentation purposes, really) not to let the bone slip out and transfer them to a large plate. (While you could serve the short ribs right out of this pot, the vegetables have all given up their flavor and texture and aren't worth much now, so feel free to strain the sauce for easier eating.) Scatter parsley, chives and lemon zest over the top of the short ribs. Separate the fat from the sauce, season with salt and pepper and serve alongside.

Steps:

• You will need a heavy-bottomed pot that can go into your oven for this recipe.
• Cooking starts on the stovetop, moves to the oven, then returns to the top-of-the-stove.
• As well, it can be prepared over 2 days.
• Preheat oven to 400*F.
• On top of stove, get pot"hot" and add oil.
• Coat ribs in flour, shaking off excess.
• Sprinkle with oregano.
• Brown ribs one-at-a-time, browning them on all sides.
• Remove last ribs and lower stove-top temp.
• Add onions and garlic and cook for two minutes.
• Add wine.
• Deglaze the pot by scrapping all the brown bits from the bottom Return the ribs to the pot and add the can of tomatoes.
• (The ribs should be almost covered, but if not, add some water.) Bring the pot to a simmer and cover with lid or foil.
• Place pot in 400*F oven for 1 hour.
• Reduce oven heat to 300*F and cook ribs for an additional 2 hours.
• (All the above can be done the day ahead. Should you go the 2-day route, re-warm the sauce and ribs just enough to pull the meat off the bones.) Shred the meat discarding the bones.
• Return meat to the sauce and reheat fully.
• TO ASSEMBLE: On the stove-top over medium heat (and in another large pot), toss the cherry tomatoes.
• Cook tomatoes until soft.
• Add the last group of onions, garlic and chilis and cook, stirring, for another 2 minutes.
• Add the rib-meat and sauce and top it off with the last cup of tomatoes.
• Cook, uncovered, for another 10 minutes.
• Cook your pasta.
• (The Chef of the CARIBOU RESTAURANT recommends using a pasta like BUCATINI- a thicker one you can easily eat with just a fork.) Drain the pasta and put into a warm bowl.
• Scoop meat and sauce over the pasta and toss.
• Top with fresh basil and grated cheese.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Spray 12-inch nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat until hot. Add short ribs; cook 6 to 8 minutes or until browned on all sides.
• In ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish, combine tomatoes, broth, wine, flour, chili sauce, thyme, marjoram, salt and garlic-pepper blend; mix well. Add browned ribs, carrots and onion; stir gently to mix. (Baking dish will be full.) Cover with foil.
• Bake covered at 325°F. for 2 hours.
• Uncover baking dish, bake an additional 20 to 30 minutes or until ribs are tender and liquid is slightly thickened.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees. Pat meat dry with paper towels and season all over with salt and pepper.
• Heat grapeseed oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When oil shimmers, add short ribs and brown on all sides, about 2 minutes per side; transfer to a plate.
• Add onion, carrot, celery, lemongrass, garlic and ginger to the pot. Season with salt and cook, stirring often, until onion softens, about 5 minutes. Pour in wine and cook, stirring to dissolve any of the brown bits that may still be on the bottom of the pot. Add broth, plum sauce, soy sauce, thyme, parsley and bay leaves and bring to a simmer.
• Return short ribs to pot, along with any juices, cover and slide pot into oven. Braise until meat is fork-tender, about 2 hours.
• Transfer meat to a plate. Strain braising liquid into a fat separator. If you don't have a fat separator, use a ladle to skim the fat off the top of the braising liquid; then strain through a fine mesh sieve.
• Discard bay leaves and thyme stems and transfer vegetables to a food processor. Process vegetables until smooth, then add 1 1/2 cups of the defatted braising liquid to the processor and pulse to combine.
• Return sauce to Dutch oven and season to taste with salt and pepper. Add short ribs and turn to coat in the sauce; set aside until you're ready to serve.
• Reheat short ribs in the sauce. Divide short ribs between four shallow bowls and top each with a spoonful of sauce. Put remaining sauce in a bowl for passing at the table, along with a bowl of horseradish, if you'd like.
