Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the baby back ribs, finely chopped onion, extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, chopped fresh oregano, liquid honey, minced garlic, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Ensure the ribs are thoroughly coated with the mixture. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

Marinate the ribs in the refrigerator, turning occasionally to ensure even flavor distribution, for a minimum of 4 hours, or ideally overnight (6-8 hours) for a more intense flavor profile. (Marinating time: 4-8 hours)

03

Step

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease with cooking spray to prevent sticking. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

04

Step

Arrange the marinated ribs on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded and have ample space between them for even cooking. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

05

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for an initial browning period of approximately 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to begin to meld and caramelize. (Bake time: 10 minutes)

06

Step

Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) and continue baking the ribs until they are exquisitely tender and easily pull away from the bone, approximately 1 hour. (Bake time: 1 hour)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade for a subtle hint of heat.
Serve these Greek ribs with a side of roasted vegetables, a refreshing Greek salad, or creamy tzatziki sauce for a complete and satisfying meal.
Ensure the ribs are fully defrosted before marinating for optimal flavor penetration.
