Sicilian-Style Broccoli Rabe

Too bitter. Flash boil brocolli rabe in 4 quarts of salted water for 5 minutes immediately submerge in iced water. Press and drain in colander and salute as suggested in your recipe. A teaspoon of anchovy paste sauteed with garlic really makes it Sicilian.

Delicious. Made as written and loved it. Thank you for the recipe.

This is how you make broccoli rabe- no blanching. The only changes I made was that I used a lot more minced garlic. 9 cloves. I also tossed pine nuts in. Delicious.

Really easy and tasty. I used a bit more water than called for in the recipe and lots more garlic.

Super easy!! It came out perfectly. Even my husband liked it and he usually doesn’t like broccoli rabe

Good way to go,I put a squeeze of lemon on it,and add a few drips of Nuoc Mam[fish sauce] puts the Umami in it...

I added more garlic, sun dried tomatoes and use vegetable or chicken broth instead of water. To make it a whole meal, a 15oz can of white beans and pasta. Serve with grated cheese

Easy and deliciouso!! I cut up a nice pork sausage and served over medium shells. Bread for dipping too

I made this recipe exactly as written. It was just like the rabe my Sicilian friends make. I sliced open a small baguette and had a delicious sandwich. Rizzi

Love it! Broccoli Rabe may be an acquired taste for some due to it's strong flavor but it's one of my favorite vegetables. I've been making this recipe for decades having learned it from my Dad who was born in the northern Alps region of Italy. It's also great made with Italian sausage and/or cannellini beans. YUM!
