Preparation

Step 1

Combine 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) flour and 1 teaspoon paprika. Add to ribs in large bowl; toss to evenly coat ribs with flour mixture.

Heat oil in large skillet on medium heat. Add ribs; cook 5 minutes or until evenly browned on both sides, turning occasionally.

Place ribs in slow cooker sprayed with cooking spray; sprinkle with pepper and remaining paprika. Top with vegetables and garlic. Mix broth and Worcestershire sauce until blended; pour over ingredients in slow cooker. Cover with lid. Cook on HIGH 6 hours (or on LOW 8 to 10 hours).

Remove ribs from slow cooker, reserving sauce in slow cooker; skim and discard fat from surface of sauce. Remove and discard rib bones. Return meat to slow cooker. Add sour cream and remaining flour; whisk until blended. Cook, covered, on LOW 10 to 15 min. or until slightly thickened. Meanwhile, cook noodles as directed on package, omitting salt.

Drain noodles; place in large serving bowl. Add meat mixture; stir.
