Sauteed Rapini

Try this slightly bitter green as a side dish and I bet you're hooked after the first time you taste it! So nutritious as well as delicious.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 bunch rapini (washed and trimmed, do not remove the stalks entirely, just tips)
  • 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 large cloves garlic or three smaller cloves
  • 3 Tbsp water
  • tsp sea salt to taste
  • tsp crushed red pepper flakes or fresh/dried cayenne pepper (optional)

Instructions

  1. Put the oil, garlic and pepper in a frying pan over medium high heat. Cook until garlic just starts to brown.
  2. Add the rapini (cut in half if the bunch is really long) along with the water.
  3. Turn the greens quickly, then cover and sauté for a few minutes, occasionally turning. Add salt to taste. Lower the heat, if necessary.
  4. Don't overcook the rapini, the stalks should still be a bit firm/crunchy when done; after 5 or 6 minutes is probably when I would first check to see if it's ready. The best way to check is to taste a piece (and check for salt too.)
  5. Remove from heat when ready.

Notes

  • Use fresh, quality ingredients for the best results.
