Instructions
Prepare the Marinade 🌿✨
-
Combine All Marinade Ingredients: In a large non-metal dish, mix together the garlic, paprika, cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, and lemon juice. Stir until everything is well combined and you have a smooth marinade.
-
Marinate the Ribs: Add the boneless pork ribs to the marinade. Spoon the mixture over the ribs until they are thoroughly covered on both sides. Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for several hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to infuse into the meat.
Cooking the Ribs 🔥🍖
-
Prepare the Oven: Place an oven rack on the top shelf of your oven. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
-
Prepare the Roasting Tin: Line a roasting tin with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Place a well-oiled roasting rack inside the roasting tin. This will help the ribs cook evenly and allow any excess marinade to drip off.
-
Cook the Ribs: Remove the ribs from the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Place them on the roasting rack. Cook on the top shelf of the oven for 30-40 minutes, turning them once halfway through to ensure they cook evenly and develop a nice caramelized exterior.
Making the Sauce 🍯👩🍳
- Boil the Marinade: While the ribs are cooking, pour the leftover marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat. Continue boiling until the mixture thickens slightly, creating a rich and flavorful sauce.
Serve and Enjoy 🎉🍽️
- Serve the Ribs: Once the ribs are cooked through and have a beautiful sticky glaze, remove them from the oven. Serve the ribs on a bed of fluffy rice, and generously pour the thickened sauce over them.
Tips and Variations 🌟🍴
-
Barbecue Option: If you prefer to cook the ribs on the barbecue, ensure you boil the marinade thoroughly before using it to baste the ribs. This ensures any bacteria from the raw meat is killed.
-
Additional Flavor: Add a teaspoon of smoked paprika for an extra smoky flavor. A dash of hot sauce can add a nice kick if you like a bit of heat.
-
Side Dishes: These ribs pair wonderfully with a simple green salad, roasted vegetables, or a creamy coleslaw. The sweetness and tang of the marinade complement these sides beautifully.
These oven-baked pork ribs are perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special weekend meal. The marinade is the star of the show, creating a deliciously sticky and flavorful coating that will have everyone coming back for seconds. Enjoy this delightful dish from Love With Recipes! 🌟❤️
