Total preparation time: 2 hours and 45 minutes (including marinating)
Cooking time: 1 hour and 45 minutes
Number of servings: 4
Ingredients:
- 4 pieces of kid ribs
- 5 cloves of garlic
- 1 green onion
- 1 cup of red wine
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 4 slices of lemon
- 300 g tomatoes in their own juice (fresh or canned)
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Preparation:
1. Preparing the kid ribs:
Start by washing the kid ribs well under warm running water. This step is essential to remove any impurities. After washing, place them on a paper towel to dry slightly.
2. Preparing the marinade:
Peel the 5 cloves of garlic and crush them using a food processor or a mortar and pestle. In a large bowl, combine the red wine, salt, pepper, paprika, thyme, and crushed garlic. Add the lemon slices to the marinade and mix well. This mixture will add a deep and sophisticated flavor to the meat.
3. Marinating:
Place the ribs in the bowl with the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. If you have time, let them marinate overnight to intensify the flavors.
4. Preparing the tomato sauce:
After the ribs have marinated, prepare the sauce. In a small blender, add the tomatoes, oregano, a bit of pepper, and blend until you get a smooth sauce. This simple yet tasty sauce will perfectly complement the meat’s flavor.
5. Assembling the dish:
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the ribs in a baking dish, pouring the marinade over them. Use the green onion, sliced into rounds, and spread them evenly over the ribs, adding a note of freshness and extra flavor.
6. Cooking:
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and place it in the oven. Let the ribs cook for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Then, remove the foil and pour the tomato sauce over the ribs. Continue cooking for another 30 minutes, leaving the oven door open for the last 15 minutes so that the ribs develop a golden and appetizing crust.
7. Serving:
Once the ribs are ready, take them out of the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve them warm, alongside a side of mashed potatoes or grilled vegetables. A fresh green salad can perfectly complete the meal, bringing a contrast of textures and flavors.
