Easy Sauteed Broccoli Rabe with Balsamic Vinegar
Broccoli rabe is quickly sautéed until tender-crisp, then finished with balsamic vinegar for a sharp, simple side.

Ingredients
- 1 large bunch broccoli rabe
- 1 T extra virgin olive oil
- 1 T best quality balsamic vinegar
- salt, pepper to taste
Directions
- Trim away the broccoli rabe stems and toss them, then slice across the leaves into thick ribbons.
- Rinse the greens in a salad spinner, and spin them dry if they need it.
- Warm the olive oil in a large frying pan set over medium heat.
- Add the broccoli rabe and sauté for 3-5 minutes, until it has softened partway but still keeps a little crispness.
- Take the pan off the heat, drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the broccoli rabe, add salt and pepper to taste, and serve it hot.
