Ingredients
To whip up this delightful dish, you’ll need the following ingredients:
- 2 pounds pork ribs
- 2 ripe kiwis, mashed
- 1 cup lime juice
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes (for a little kick)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh cilantro, for garnish
Instructions
Let’s get down to business and make some ribs that’ll have folks begging for seconds:
- First things first, preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). You want those ribs to cook low and slow, just like your favorite Sunday afternoon nap.
- In a bowl, mix together the mashed kiwis, lime juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, chili flakes, and a pinch of salt and pepper. This tangy marinade is going to elevate those ribs to a whole new level!
- Take your pork ribs and place them in a roasting pan. Pour the kiwi-lime marinade over them, making sure every inch is well-coated. If you’re feeling fancy, you can even let them marinate for a couple of hours (or overnight in the fridge). The longer, the better!
- Cover the ribs tightly with aluminum foil and pop them in the oven. Let them bake for about 2.5 to 3 hours. You want them to be fall-off-the-bone tender. During this time, it’s the perfect opportunity to contemplate life choices or binge-watch your favorite show.
- Once they’ve cooked, remove the foil, crank up the oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes. This will give those ribs a delicious caramelized finish.
- Take them out, let them rest for a few minutes (good things come to those who wait), then slice them up and serve with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
And there you have it! A plate full of Kiwi-Lime Pork Ribs that are bursting with flavor and are sure to be the star of any gathering. Enjoy your culinary masterpiece!
