1
Prepare the Broccoli Rabe
Wash the broccoli rabe thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or grit. Trim off the tough ends of the stems.
2
Blanch the Broccoli Rabe
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli rabe and blanch for 2-3 minutes until bright green and slightly tender. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
3
Sauté Garlic
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and lightly golden, being careful not to burn it.
4
Combine and Cook
Add the blanched broccoli rabe to the skillet with the garlic and oil. Toss to coat and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
5
Serve
Transfer the sautéed broccoli rabe to a serving dish and serve warm as a side dish.
