Lemon Juice* (to taste)

Rocco Broccoli Rabe Recipe:

Clean and dry the broccoli rabe in a salad spinner, cut off the stems, and sear over very high heat until charred and brown. Add some sliced garlic, let it brown, and serve. Some people like to add some fresh lemon juice*.

Brococli Rabe Recipe 2:

You can cook Brococli Rabe quickly until they are tender. I love to cut the large stems off, slice them thin and put them in a bowl. Then in a pan, I put olive oil, garlic and a salt and pepper. Then cover the broccoli rabe in the pan for a bit and the water will steam them fast. Don't cover it too long or it will turn grey. Then if you want you can stew them in some chicken stock, garlic olive oil and it's delicious!
