Asian Sticky Ribs

I was drawn to this Asian sticky ribs recipe because the combination of flavors – spicy, sweet, salty, sticky – sounded delicious. It also looked like a fairly easy and approachable way to tackle Chinese food if one does not have a ton of experience or confidence with the flavors and ingredients. Overall, the instructions were accurate, easy to follow, and straightforward. I had most of the ingredients on hand, and what I didn’t have was easy to find at my local grocery store.

Planning ahead is important so that you can properly marinate the ribs overnight, the cooking itself is easy and fast, and you can serve on the same baking sheet they roasted on – BONUS! The marinade was delicious and I would even advocate for doubling it so that you have extra saucy goodness. I served the ribs with Jasmine rice, homemade kimchi, and a cold bock beer – which was a perfect combination. The flavor was exactly what I expected based on the description and would definitely make these ribs again!
