Instructions

  1. Step 1

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

  2. Step 2

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Sear ribs 2 minutes per side without moving — surfaces should look caramelized.

  3. Step 3

    Remove ribs to a plate. Add potatoes to the skillet and sear 2 minutes total, stirring once. Return ribs to pan.

  4. Step 4

    Stir in soy sauce, ginger, garlic, brown sugar, and water. Bring to a simmer, then lower heat to medium and cover.

  5. Step 5

    Simmer covered for 12 minutes, stirring once halfway through. Ribs should be fork-tender and glaze should coat the pan.

  6. Step 6

    Serve ribs and potatoes hot, spooning glaze over top. Garnish with sliced green onion if you have it.
