Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 large broccoli rabe bunch

(1 1/2 to 2 pounds)

Salt

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

3 garlic cloves -- sliced

Several pinches red pepper flakes

Lemon wedges or red wine vinegar

 

Leaving the leaves and florets attached, peel the large stalks with a

paring knife.

 

Drop them into pot of boiling salted water and cook for 5 minutes, longer

if you like your greens well cooked and tender, then drain. Leave it whole

or coarsely chop. Heat the oil with the garlic and pepper flakes in a

large skillet over medium-high heat until the garlic just begins to

color. Ad the broccoli rabe and cook, turning it repeatedly so that it's

coated with the oil, about 5 minutes. Taste for salt. Serve with lemon

wedges or vinegar on the side.
