Ingredients
Scale
- 3 pounds beef ribs
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons capers
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 anchovy fillets (optional)
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Rub ribs with olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper, and let rest for 15 minutes.
- Arrange ribs bone-side down in a large baking dish and cover with foil.
- Bake for 2.5 to 3 hours until tender and juicy.
- While the ribs cook, blend parsley, capers, anchovies, lemon juice, vinegar, olive oil, and chili flakes into a smooth salsa verde.
- Once ribs are cooked, uncover and broil or grill for a few minutes to caramelize the surface.
