Olive Garden's Chianti Braised Short Ribs Ingredients:
3 lbs boneless beef short ribs (*) |
salt, to taste |
pepper, to taste |
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil |
1 medium yellow onion, chopped |
4 large garlic cloves, minced |
2 cups chianti wine |
1 (32 ounce) can crushed tomatoes |
3 cups beef broth |
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped |
Directions:
1. PAT short ribs dry and season with salt and pepper.
2. COAT a large, nonstick pan with olive oil. Sear the short rib pieces over medium-high heat for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until brown. Transfer short ribs to a bowl.
3. ADD onions to pan and cook over medium heat for approximately 3 minutes. Once onions are translucent, add garlic and cook for 1 minute; do not brown. Add Chianti, rosemary, beef broth and tomatoes to the pan one at a time, allowing liquid to partially evaporate before each addition (about 2 minutes).
4. RETURN short ribs to pan, including any juices that might have accumulated in the bowl. Cover and let simmer for 3 hours on low heat to complete the braising process. Remove short ribs from pan and boil the liquid until it is reduced by half; about 10 minutes.
5. RETURN short ribs to pan and heat thoroughly.
6. SERVE with potatoes or risotto and vegetables.
7. *Your grocery store butcher can cut into individual ribs and de-bone.
