Ingredients
2 lbs pork ribs (baby back or spare ribs)
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 large onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb sauerkraut, drained and rinsed
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 tsp caraway seeds
1 bay leaf
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Season pork ribs with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear ribs in batches until browned on all sides, about 4 minutes per batch. Remove and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Stir in sauerkraut, chicken broth, white wine, caraway seeds, and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer.
Return ribs to the pot, nestling them into the sauerkraut. Cover and cook over low heat for 1.5 to 2 hours, until ribs are tender and falling off the bone.
Discard bay leaf. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve hot.
Tips
For extra flavor, add a chopped apple along with the sauerkraut.
