Ingredients
Lamb Ribs
- 2 pounds lamb ribs
Marinade
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
Instructions
- Prepare the marinade: In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, minced garlic, and soy sauce thoroughly until the sugar begins to dissolve.
- Season the ribs: Place the lamb ribs in a large dish and pour the marinade over them. Make sure the ribs are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to penetrate.
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to fully heat before baking.
- Bake the ribs: Arrange the marinated ribs on a baking tray lined with foil or parchment paper to catch drippings. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the ribs are tender and the brown sugar has caramelized, turning golden and sticky.
- Rest and serve: Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute for maximum tenderness.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, broil the ribs for the last 3-5 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning.
- Marinating overnight enhances the flavor depth significantly.
- Use a rack on the baking tray to allow excess fat to drip off and avoid soggy bottoms.
- Adjust soy sauce amount for sodium preference.
