Chinese Braised Short Ribs
Recipe courtesy Sandra Lee

Ingredients
1 large onion
4 pounds beef short ribs
Lemon pepper, to taste
Garlic salt, to taste
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 cups low-sodium beef broth
1 packet beefy onion soup mix
2 (14.5-ounce) cans tomatoes with green pepper, celery and onion
2 tablespoons five-spice powder

Instructions
Slice the onion and put it into a slow cooker.

Season the short ribs with lemon pepper and garlic salt. Heat the oil in a large skillet over
medium-high heat. Working in batches, brown all sides of the short ribs. When browned, place in slow

cooker on top of sliced onions.

In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Pour over the top of short ribs. Cover and cook
on high setting for 3 to 4 hours or low for 8 to 9 hours.

Cook's Note: Five-spice powder is a blend of ground spices used extensively in Chinese cooking. It
usually consists of cloves, cinnamon, fennel seed, star anise, and Szechuan peppercorns. It can be
found in the spice section of the grocery store.
