Gingered Short Ribs with Green Rice

I love the flavors of Korean cuisine, so I created short ribs for the slow cooker. The dish is beautiful, too!

  • 1/3 cup sherry or additional reduced-sodium beef broth
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh gingerroot
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 medium carrots, chopped
  • 2 medium onions, chopped
  • 3 pounds bone-in beef short ribs

Directions

  • In a small bowl, whisk the first 7 ingredients until blended. Place carrots and onions in a 5-qt. slow cooker. Sprinkle ribs with salt and pepper; place over vegetables. Pour broth mixture over top.
  • Cook, covered, on low 8-10 hours or until meat is tender.
  • Just before serving, prepare rice according to package directions. Stir in green onions, cilantro, jalapenos and lime zest.
