Ingredients

  • 2 lbs pork ribs
  • 1 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup pineapple juice
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish
  • Green onions, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix together teriyaki sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and pineapple juice to make the marinade.
  2. Place the pork ribs in a large resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over the ribs. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
  3. Remove the ribs from the marinade and pat them dry. Reserve the marinade for later use.
  4. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Add the ribs and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.
  5. Pour the reserved marinade over the ribs and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 1 hour, or until the ribs are tender.
  6. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a little water to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the sauce to thicken.
  7. Once the ribs are cooked and the sauce has thickened, remove from heat. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
