Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat the ribs dry with paper towels. Season all sides generously with salt and pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat until smoking, about 2 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Lay ribs flat in the hot pan without moving them. Sear 2 minutes until edges are deeply charred.

  4. Step 4

    Flip once and sear the other side 2 minutes. Meat should feel firm but have give when pressed.

  5. Step 5

    Transfer ribs to a warm plate. Reduce heat to medium and add garlic to the same skillet.

  6. Step 6

    Toast garlic 30 seconds, then pour in olive oil and remove from heat. Stir in parsley.

  7. Step 7

    Drizzle the garlic oil over the ribs. Rest for 2 minutes, then serve.
