Why This Dish Is Hard To Resist

These ribs come out tender and flavorful in a fraction of the time it takes to slow-cook them. The pressure cooker locks in all the spices and juices, making every bite rich and satisfying. It’s a perfect dish for busy weeknights or when you want a comforting meal without the long wait.

Helpful Chef Tips

- Brown the ribs before pressure cooking to enhance the flavor.
- Use natural pressure release to keep the meat juicy and tender.
- Adjust the soy sauce and sugar to balance sweetness and saltiness to your taste.

Step 1

Blend the paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt in a resealable bag. Toss the ribs in the bag, seal it up, and give it a good shake until they’re nicely coated with the seasoning.

Step 2

Heat some oil in a wok or large pan over medium-high heat. Brown the ribs in the hot oil, turning them every few minutes so they get a nice color all around—this should take about 3 to 4 minutes per side.

Step 3

While the ribs are browning, whisk together the water, ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce in your pressure cooker. Once the ribs are browned, transfer them into the cooker and lock the lid in place. Bring it up to pressure, then lower the heat to medium.

Step 4

Let the ribs cook under pressure for about 15 minutes. When they’re done, carefully release the pressure following the instructions for your cooker.

Great Ways To Serve

Serve the ribs with steamed jasmine rice or fried rice for a complete meal. Add a side of stir-fried vegetables or a simple cucumber salad to keep things fresh and light. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for extra color and crunch.

Storage Instructions

Store leftover ribs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or on the stovetop with a splash of water to keep them moist. For longer storage, freeze the ribs for up to 2 months and thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
