Grilled Short Rib Lettuce Cups With Spicy Peanuts Recipes

ORANGE-GINGER GRILLED BONELESS SHORT RIBS WITH GREEN ONION-PEANUT RELISH

Steps:

• For the orange-ginger glaze: Combine the juice, sugar, tamari, peppercorns, ground pepper, salt, anise and ginger in a saucepan. Cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half. Strain and cool.
• For the grilled boneless short ribs: Toss the ribs with 1/2 cup of the glaze, reserving the remaining glaze. Set aside the ribs at room temperature for 30 minutes. Prepare the grill for direct grilling at medium-high heat. Remove the ribs from the glaze, shaking off the excess. Brush the ribs with the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the ribs until nicely charred and still pink in the middle, about 3 minutes each side. Brush the ribs occasionally with the reserved glaze.
• For the green onion-peanut relish: Combine the peanuts, onions, sugar, allspice, cinnamon and sprinkle lightly with salt. Transfer the ribs to a platter and top with the green onion-peanut relish.

GRILLED SHORT RIBS AND LETTUCES WITH MUSTARD-ORANGE DRESSING

Steps:

• Stir red pepper flakes (if using), 1/2 cup marmalade, 2 Tbsp. mustard, 1 Tbsp. vinegar, and 1/2 tsp. black pepper in a small bowl.
• Place ribs in a glass baking dish; season all over with 2 tsp. salt. Pour marinade over and turn ribs to coat. Let sit at room temperature at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Whisk garlic, 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. oil, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. pepper, and remaining 1 tsp. marmalade, 2 tsp. mustard, and 2 Tbsp. vinegar in a small bowl or measuring cup.
• Prepare a grill for high heat; oil grate. Grill ribs until lightly charred and crisp around the edges, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter, season with salt, and let rest 5 minutes.
• Drizzle cut sides of romaine and radicchio with oil, then season with 1 tsp. salt. Grill, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and warmed through, about 2 minutes for the romaine and 5 minutes for the radicchio. If using bread, grill alongside radicchio until lightly charred and warmed through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to platter with ribs.
• Pour dressing over charred lettuces and ribs; season with more salt and pepper.
• Do Ahead: Marinade and dressing can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Ribs can be marinated 8 hours ahead. Cover and chill then let sit at room temperature at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour before grilling.
