Juicy grilled barbecue ribs placed on a green plate outdoors in the sunlight.

Method

  1. Start by prepping your olive oil, garlic, yellow onion so the cooking goes quickly.
  2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the garlic and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  3. Turn the heat up, add the carnitas, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
  4. Fold in the yellow onion and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
  5. Pour in the cream, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
  6. Off the heat, brighten it up with toasted nuts and a final crack of pepper.
  7. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
