Prepare the Broccoli Rabe
Trim the ends of the broccoli rabe and wash it thoroughly. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch the broccoli rabe for 2-3 minutes until bright green, then drain and set aside.

Cook the Sausage
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the Italian sausage links and cook until browned on all sides, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the sausage from the skillet and let it rest before slicing.

Sauté the Garlic and Broccoli Rabe
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and red pepper flakes. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the blanched broccoli rabe to the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
