Step 1
Pat ribs dry with paper towels. Season all over with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Sear ribs 2 minutes per side until browned edges form.
Step 3
Add garlic to the pan, stir 30 seconds until fragrant, then add tomato paste and stir to coat.
Step 4
Pour broth and vinegar into the skillet. Add bay leaves. Cover tightly with foil, turn heat to medium-low.
Step 5
Braise 12–14 minutes until ribs are fork-tender and liquid reduces to a glossy glaze.
Step 6
Remove foil carefully (steam will escape). Serve hot with the pan sauce spooned over ribs.
