Broccoli Rabe with Garlic

Ingredients

• •1 lb broccoli rabe, trimmed
• •3 tbsp olive oil
• •4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
• •1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
• •1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• •3/4 tsp salt

Directions

1. 1Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the broccoli rabe for 2 minutes.
2. 2Drain the broccoli rabe well and squeeze out excess water once cool enough to handle.
3. 3Heat olive oil in a skillet and cook garlic until lightly golden, about 1 minute.
4. 4Add red pepper flakes and broccoli rabe and toss to coat.
5. 5Sauté for 5–6 minutes until tender and browned at a few edges.
6. 6Finish with lemon juice and salt and serve hot.

💡 Brief blanching mellows the strongest bitterness without flattening the broccoli rabe's distinctive flavour.
