Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat until it's smoking hot, about 2 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Pat the beef ribs dry. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Add a thin drizzle of oil to the skillet, then lay ribs in a single layer without crowding. Sear 2–3 minutes per side without moving until edges are deeply charred.

  4. Step 4

    Transfer ribs to a plate. Quickly toss the minced garlic into the hot skillet, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.

  5. Step 5

    Scatter the ribs back on top. Drizzle with any pan juices. Garnish with fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon.

  6. Step 6

    Serve immediately while the surface is still crackling.
