Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat ribs dry. Whisk ketchup, soy sauce, brown sugar, and garlic until smooth.

  2. Step 2

    Arrange ribs meat-side up on a sheet pan. Brush glaze thickly on both sides.

  3. Step 3

    Broil ribs 6 inches from heat for 12 minutes, basting with extra glaze halfway through. Edges should char and bubble.

  4. Step 4

    Meanwhile, boil potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and mash with salt and pepper.

  5. Step 5

    Warm vegetable chips in a small skillet or serve at room temperature alongside the plated ribs and potatoes.

  6. Step 6

    Divide mashed potatoes and ribs between plates. Scatter vegetable chips on the side and garnish with cilantro.
