Instructions
- Chop off the bottom 1/2" of the broccoli rabe stems. Rough chop 5 cloves of garlic.
- In a large deep pan, saute the garlic for 2-3 minutes in a 1/4 cup of olive oil set to medium-low heat.
- Add the broccoli rabe to the pan and give it all a stir as best as possible to coat with the olive oil. Just pack it in the pan as it will reduce substantially during the next step.
- Add a 1/4 cup of water to the pan and cover. Turn heat to medium-high and let the broccoli rabe steam for 3-4 minutes until bright green.
- Remove lid and season with 1 tsp of kosher salt and if desired a 1/2 tsp of red pepper flakes. Mix the broccoli rabe with a wooden spoon and saute for 2-3 more minutes. Turn off the heat and drizzle a couple of tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil on top. Enjoy!
Notes
- Buy dark green broccoli rabe that shows no signs of yellowing.
- Always chop off the bottom 1/2″ of the stem (this is the area where it was cut at the farm and is often brown).
- Steam just enough to maintain its firmness.
- Use adequate salt as bitter veggies need more salt.
