Ingredients
  

  • • 1 head broccoli rabe
  • • 2 tbsp + 2 tsp olive oil
  • • 1 tsp red chili pepper flakes
  • • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Wash and chop broccoli rabe into bite-sized pieces.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet and add broccoli rabe - it will overfill the pan but that's ok. Cover and cook on medium heat about 5 minutes. The broccoli rabe will shrink down.
  • Season with red chili pepper flakes, salt & pepper, and remaining olive oil. Sauté uncovered for about another 5 minutes or until it's fork-tender.

Notes

If you like garlic, chop up a few cloves and lightly sauté them in the oil before adding the broccoli rabe to the skillet. Be sure not to let them burn. Follow along with the rest of the recipe and enjoy!
