Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat ribs dry with paper towels. Season generously on both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a heavy skillet or grill pan over medium-high until it smokes, ~2 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Sear ribs 2 minutes per side without moving — they should have a dark crust and sizzle loudly.

  4. Step 4

    Lower heat to medium. Scatter minced garlic around the ribs and cook until fragrant, ~90 seconds.

  5. Step 5

    Transfer skillet to a 400°F oven (or finish on indirect grill heat) for 3–4 minutes until ribs reach 130°F internal temp.

  6. Step 6

    Rest 2 minutes. Plate and finish with a squeeze of lemon juice and fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately.

Tools you’ll need
