Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat pork ribs dry and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.

  2. Step 2

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Working in batches if needed, sear ribs 2 minutes per side without moving. Should be golden brown.

  4. Step 4

    Stir miso, butter, ginger, mirin, and soy sauce in a small bowl until smooth and combined.

  5. Step 5

    Brush miso glaze all over the seared ribs, coating both sides evenly. Transfer skillet to broiler.

  6. Step 6

    Broil 3–4 minutes until glaze caramelizes and edges char. Watch carefully — don't let it burn.

  7. Step 7

    Sprinkle with scallions and sesame seeds. Serve hot from the skillet or transfer to a plate.

Tools you’ll need
