Easy Sticky Lamb Ribs

Recipe Description

These Easy Sticky Lamb Ribs are unbelievably tasty! This is a real Friday night dinner – easy to prepare and while the ribs cook, you can start relaxing! My top tip if you decide to make these – ask your butcher to separate the lamb ribs so they cook faster. You will thank me later!!! If you can’t find gochujang, you can substitute with any chili paste.

These ribs couldn’t be easier to prepare either. Start by combining all of the glaze ingredients.
Place the ribs on a baking sheet and spoon half of the glaze over the top. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, brushing with the glaze every 10 minutes. After 40 minutes, increase the oven temperature to allow the ribs to caramelize. Once caramelized, remove from the oven and serve with delicious steamed greens.

To make the Easy Sticky Lamb Ribs, you will need the following ingredients:
