Pat short ribs dry with paper towels. Heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the oil in Dutch oven or large saucepan over medium-high heat; brown short ribs, in batches and adding more oil as needed, until browned on all sides. Transfer to plate.

Add onions, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper to pan; cook over medium heat, stirring often, for 5 minutes or until softened.
