Step 1
Pat beef ribs dry. Combine soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger in a bowl.
Step 2
Add beef ribs to marinade, toss to coat evenly, and let sit 8 minutes at room temperature.
Step 3
Heat a heavy skillet or grill pan over medium-high until it smokes, about 2 minutes.
Step 4
Sear ribs without moving 2–3 minutes per side until edges caramelize and meat browns deeply.
Step 5
Pour remaining marinade into pan, tilting to coat ribs, and cook 1 minute until glaze sets.
Step 6
Slide onto a plate, scatter white scallion parts over top, drizzle with any pan glaze, and serve hot.
