Description

Indulge in the ultimate comfort food with this Braised Short Rib Ragu Pasta recipe. Tender beef short ribs are simmered to perfection in a rich, tomato-based sauce, then tossed with al dente pasta for a truly satisfying and flavorful dish.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 lbs beef short ribs
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 cup red wine
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 lb penne pasta
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving
  • Chopped fresh parsley, for serving

Instructions

  1. Season the short ribs with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the short ribs and sear on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  3. Remove the short ribs from the pot and set aside. Reduce the heat to medium, add the onion and garlic, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Pour in the red wine and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
  5. Add the crushed tomatoes, thyme, and bay leaf. Return the short ribs to the pot and bring the mixture to a simmer.
  6. Cover the pot and transfer to the oven. Braise the short ribs for 2-3 hours, or until the meat is very tender and falling off the bone.
  7. Remove the pot from the oven and let the short ribs cool slightly. Shred the meat from the bones and return it to the sauce.
  8. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the penne according to package instructions until al dente.
  9. Drain the pasta and add it to the pot with the braised short rib ragu. Toss to combine.
  10. Serve the Braised Short Rib Ragu Pasta hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley.
