1
Prepare the Broccoli Rabe
Trim the ends of the broccoli rabe and rinse it under cold water. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the broccoli rabe for about 2-3 minutes until bright green. Drain and set aside.
2
Sauté the Garlic
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red chili flakes, and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.
3
Combine Ingredients
Add the blanched broccoli rabe to the skillet, tossing to coat it in the garlic and oil. Season with salt and black pepper, and sauté for an additional 3-4 minutes.
4
Add Bread Crumbs
Stir in the bread crumbs and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the bread crumbs to toast slightly and become golden.
5
Serve
Remove from heat and serve warm as a side dish or over pasta.
