Braised Short Ribs Recipe

Ingredients

6 tablespoons water
6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
4 teaspoons red wine vinegar
4 teaspoons dried basil
4 teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons dried rosemary, crushed
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons crushed garlic
6 to 8 boneless beef short ribs (about 1-1/2 pounds)
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce

Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine water, 2 tablespoons oil, mustard, vinegar and seasonings; mix well. Place ribs in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow glass container. Set aside half of marinade. Pour remaining marinade over ribs; turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for several hours.
Drain, discarding marinade. In a skillet, brown the ribs in remaining oil. Transfer ribs to a greased shallow 1-qt. baking dish. Combine tomato sauce and reserved marinade; pour over ribs. Cover and bake at 350° for 2 hours or until meat is tender. Yield: 2 servings.
