I love buying organic broccoli rabe from the Hmong farmers at the Boulder Farmer’s Market. I enjoy slightly bitter greens, so if you don’t, this dish might not be for you. However, I encourage everyone to try something at least once.

This is a simple sauté in which I used veggie broth to cook and added olive oil when it was done.

Ingredients:

Broccoli Rabe (an amount the size of a small head of lettuce)
Fresh Pepper, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2/3 cup Veggie Broth
Olive Oil
Fresh Ground Pepper

Heat the veggie broth in a sauté pan with the chopped garlic. When the broth starts to come to a boil, add the peppers and cook for a couple minutes. Then add the broccoli rabe and cook 2-3 minutes, until it is bright green.

Remove from heat and drain the excess liquid in a fine stainless steel colander. Put the broccoli rabe in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil and pepper. Sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan cheese if you want some more flavor.
