Garlic Braised Beef Short Rib

Oven tender short ribs braised in a fresh medley of vegetables, deep red wine, beef stock, and oodles of fresh garlic cloves. When the ribs are ready all the vegetables and stock have reduced leaving a luscious rich Jus. The parmesan polenta is so vibrant and comforting sitting as a base to the succulent ribs. Just for extra color, a sautéed panache of fresh vegetables is the crown to complete this comforting and nourishing dish.
