Grilled Flanken Short Ribs
A simple marinade of adobo sauce, lime, and spices adds smoky heat and tenderness to this rich and flavorful cut of meat, which cooks up quickly on the grill.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons adobo sauce
- Zest and juice from 1 lime
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 ½ pounds (680 g) flanken-style short ribs
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the adobo sauce, lime zest and juice, coriander, and cumin. Season well with salt and pepper.
- Place the ribs in a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over and seal the bag. Massage well to thoroughly coat the ribs.
- Marinate for at least 8 and up to 24 hours. Flip and massage the bag occasionally.
- Preheat the grill for medium-high (400°F).
- Place the ribs in a single layer on the grill and cook, flipping once, until seared on the outside and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Don't overcook--These cook very quickly, so don't step away from the grill while you're making them. They can become overcooked and tough if cooked too long.
- Dietary--This recipe is suitable for gluten-free and dairy-free diets.
