Ingredients

• 2 pounds pork ribs
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large, chopped onion
• 4 minced garlic cloves
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
• 2 leaves bay leaves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).

Step 2

Season the pork ribs evenly with salt, black pepper, and paprika.

Step 3

In a large oven-safe pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the ribs on all sides, working in batches if necessary, then set them aside.

Step 4

In the same pot, add the chopped onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, and red wine vinegar to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.

Step 6

Return the ribs to the pot, nestling them in the liquid. Add the fresh thyme and bay leaves.

Step 7

Bring the mixture to a simmer, cover with a lid or foil, and transfer to the preheated oven.

Step 8

Braise the ribs for approximately 2.5 hours, or until the meat is tender and falls off the bone easily.

Step 9

Carefully remove the pot from the oven. Discard the bay leaves and thyme stems.

Step 10

Serve the ribs hot, with a bit of the braising liquid spooned over them. Enjoy your low carb meal!
