Ingredients
Scale
Meat
- 2 pounds lamb ribs
Marinade & Seasoning
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
Instructions
- Prepare the marinade: In a bowl, combine the minced garlic, brown sugar, and soy sauce thoroughly to create a flavorful marinade.
- Marinate the ribs: Place the lamb ribs in a shallow dish or resealable bag and pour the marinade over them, ensuring all ribs are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight, to enhance the flavor and tenderness.
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the ribs.
- Bake the ribs: Arrange the marinated ribs on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, occasionally basting with the marinade or pan juices. Bake until the ribs become sticky, caramelized, and tender enough to pull apart easily with a fork.
- Rest and serve: Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute for maximum flavor.
Notes
- For extra tenderness, marinate the ribs overnight.
- You can line the baking tray with foil for easier cleanup.
- Baste ribs every 30 minutes during baking to keep them moist and flavorful.
- If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, add an extra clove or two.
- Serve with roasted vegetables or a fresh salad to balance the richness.
