Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat the 2 lb short ribs dry and season generously with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large pot over medium-high and sear the ribs until deeply browned on all sides, about 8 minutes total.

  2. Step 2

    Pour in the 0.5 cup red wine and scrape up any browned bits. Add the 1 cup beef broth, bring to a simmer, then cover and cook over low heat until the meat is fork-tender, about 1.5 hours.

  3. Step 3

    While the ribs cook, make the green sauce: blend the 0.5 cup parsley, remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, and 2 tbsp water until smooth. Season with salt.

  4. Step 4

    When the ribs are tender, stir in the 1 cup frozen peas and cook until bright green and heated through, about 3 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Serve the ribs and peas with the green sauce drizzled over the top.
