Ingredients
- 2 pounds beef short ribs, flanken-style
- 0.5 cup coconut aminos
- 0.5 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons raw honey
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 3 stalks green onions, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine coconut aminos, orange juice, sesame oil, raw honey, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, black pepper, and sea salt. Whisk together until well combined to make the marinade.
Step 2
Place the beef short ribs in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the ribs, ensuring they are fully submerged. Seal the bag or cover the dish and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to marinate.
Step 3
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the short ribs from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Reserve the marinade for basting.
Step 4
Cook the short ribs on the grill for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade using a brush.
Step 5
Once cooked, remove the short ribs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Step 6
Serve the Paleo Korean Short Ribs with a sprinkle of additional chopped green onions for garnish, if desired.
