What You’ll Need
Method
Step One
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step Two
In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, vinegar, minced garlic, vegetable oil, black pepper, salt, paprika, and dried marjoram. Mix well to create the marinade.
Step Three
Place the pork ribs in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the ribs, ensuring they are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
Step Four
In a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven, heat a small amount of oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté until they become translucent.
Step Five
Remove the ribs from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later use. Place the ribs in the skillet with the onions and sear the meat on all sides until browned.
Step Six
Pour the reserved marinade and chicken broth over the ribs and onions. Bring to a simmer.
Step Seven
Cover the skillet or Dutch oven with a lid or aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven. Bake for 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the ribs are tender and the sauce has thickened, basting occasionally with the cooking liquids.
Step Eight
Once done, remove the skillet from the oven and let the ribs rest for a few minutes.
Step Nine
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your Żeberka w sosie czosnkowym with your favorite sides.
