Braised Beef Flanken Ribs with Red Wine Reduction Sauce
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 3 lbs beef flanken ribs
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups red wine
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 bay leaves
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Season the beef flanken ribs with salt and pepper.
- In a large Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef ribs and sear on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the ribs and set aside.
- Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery to the Dutch oven. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic and tomato paste, and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- Pour in the red wine and beef broth, and add the thyme sprigs and bay leaves. Bring the liquid to a simmer.
- Return the beef ribs to the Dutch oven. Cover with a lid and transfer to the preheated oven. Braise for 2.5-3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.
- Once the beef ribs are done, remove them from the Dutch oven and set aside. Strain the braising liquid into a saucepan, discarding the solids. Skim off any excess fat from the surface.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and simmer the braising liquid until it has reduced by half and thickened to a sauce-like consistency, about 15-20 minutes.
- Season the red wine reduction sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the braised beef flanken ribs with the red wine reduction sauce drizzled over the top. Enjoy!
