Instructions

Marinate the short ribs

Trim the short ribs of fat and pound both sides with the back of a knife. Place in a bowl, pour over the combined marinade, and marinate for 30 minutes, turning once. Before cooking, drain off the excess marinade and reserve it.

Sear the short ribs

Heat a large griddle over high heat for 5 minutes. Place the short ribs in a single layer without overlapping and sear for 2 minutes. Flip the beef, scatter the shallots in the middle of the short ribs, and sear for another 1 minute over high heat.

Plate and spoon over the sauce

Transfer the beef to a serving plate. Pour the reserved marinade and shallots into the pan and cook over high heat for 1 minute, then spoon over the beef to serve.
