Instructions

1

Prepare the Rapini

Wash the rapini thoroughly and trim the ends. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the rapini for about 2-3 minutes until bright green and tender. Drain and set aside.

2

Prepare the Garlic

Mince the garlic cloves and set aside.

3

Grill the Rapini

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Toss the blanched rapini with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Grill for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until slightly charred and tender.

4

Serve

Remove the rapini from the grill and drizzle with lemon juice. Serve warm topped with smoked ricotta cheese.
