Low

Preheat the oven to 200° C Heat a skillet over medium heat with the oil, sear the ribs, and season with salt and pepper. When browned, bake for about 35 minutes or until cooked. In a deep skillet, heat the oil and cook the garlic, onion, tomato, cumin, half of the cilantro, and the chiles. Fill with chicken broth and cook until reduced by half. Blend with the remaining cilantro until you obtain a smooth sauce. Remove the ribs from the oven and return to the stove, add the potatoes, nopales, and sauce. Cook for 10 minutes or until thickened. Adjust seasoning. Serve the ribs bathed in sauce, decorate with fresh parsley, and accompany with red rice.
