Stovetop Pork Ribs

Stovetop Pork Ribs

Prep Time:  20 minutes

Cook Time:  40 minutes

Servings:  6

10  Pork  Spareribs

1/2  Cup  Soy Sauce

10  cloves  Garlic, crushed

1  Tablespoon  Dried Rosemary

1  Tablespoon  Dried Oregano

2  Bay Leaves

1  Lime, juiced

10  sprigs  Fresh Parsley

Ground Black Pepper, to taste

2  Limes, cut into wedges

Place the Spareribs into a large pot, and fill it with just enough water to cover.  Add the Soy Sauce, Garlic, Rosemary, Oregano, Bay Leaves, Lime Juice, and 3/4 of the Parsley.  Bring to a boil, them simmer uncovered over medium heat until the water has completely evaporated, about 25 minutes.

When all the water is gone, remove the Bay Leaves and allow the meat to brown, turning occasionally.  Use a spatula to scrape up the browned bits and softened garlic from the bottom of the pot, and toss them with the Spareribs.  The Garlic will dissolve onto the meat.  Remove the meat, and drain on paper towels.  Season with Black Pepper and garnish with Lime Wedges and remaining Parsley.

"This is how my Brazilian mom prepares pork ribs.  Boiling the ribs with the seasonings ensures that the meat will remain moist and juicy, and that the flavors will fully penetrate the meat.  I hope you like these as much as I always have!  Serve with Lime Wedges, Rice and a Fresh Green Salad."
