Oxtail Marinade Pasta

Instructions

Oxtail

  1. In a large bowl, combine all marinade ingredient together. Stir well to create a marinade.
  2. Coat the oxtails with the marinade. Cover and let them marinate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
  3. Heat a large pot over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
  4. Add the marinated oxtails and brown them on all sides, about 8 minutes.
  5. Add the chopped onion and red capsicum to the pot. Sauté for 5 minutes until softened.
  6. Pour in 3 cups of water, add the fresh thyme sprigs, and bring to a boil.
  7. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 4 hours, stirring occasionally. The oxtails should be tender, and the liquid reduced to a rich gravy.
  8. Remove the thyme sprigs and adjust the seasoning with salt if necessary. Set aside.
