Garlicky Rapini with Red Pepper Flakes
Ingredients
- 1 bunch Rapini (aka Broccoli Raab) washed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 T extra virgin olive oil
- 3 medium garlic cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- Lemon juice from 1/2 lemon
- Parmesan cheese, to taste
Preparation
Bring 3 quarts water to boil in large saucepan. Stir in rapini greens and salt and cook until wilted and tender, about 2 1/2 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Cool empty saucepan by rinsing under cold running water. Fill cooled saucepan with cold water and submerge greens to stop the cooking process. Drain again; squeeze well to dry.
Heat oil, garlic and red pepper flakes in medium skillet over medium heat until garlic begins to sizzle, about 3 to 4 minutes. Increase heat to medium high, add blanched rapini, and cook, stirring to coat with oil, until heated through. Squeeze fresh lemon juice on top and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
