ROASTED BROCCOLI RABE
If you've never roasted broccoli rabe, this recipe will be a revelation. The high heat renders the stems and florets tender while the leaves crisp around the edges, like kale chips but with a spicy broccoli bite. Make sure not to crowd the pan or everything will steam rather than roast. This recipe will also work with regular broccoli. Cut the head up into bite-sized pieces and add 5 to 10 minutes to the cooking time.

ORECCHIETTE WITH BROCCOLI RABE AND RED PEPPER
Orecchiette with broccoli rabe, also known as rapini, is a classic dish from Apulia, the region of Italy that makes up the heel of the country's boot shape. To make the dish more colorful, I added red bell pepper to the traditional mix. The sweetness of the peppers makes a nice contrast to the bitter greens.

Steps:
- Cut away the tough stem ends of the broccoli rabe and wash well. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Season generously with salt and add the broccoli rabe. Cook for 5 minutes, until tender, and transfer using a spider or a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice cold water. Let sit for a few minutes and drain. Squeeze out water and chop very fine. Bring the water back to a boil and add the orecchiette. Cook al dente, following the timing instructions on the package (usually 9 to 10 minutes).
- While the pasta is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy nonstick skillet and add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook until the garlic is fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute, and add the diced red bell pepper. Cook, stirring, until tender, 3 to 5 minutes, and add the remaining tablespoon of oil and the broccoli rabe. Toss together for a minute, season to taste with salt, and remove from the heat but keep warm.
- Stir 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water into the greens. Drain the pasta and toss it with the greens, peppers, and cheese. Serve at once.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, tender broccoli and broccoli rabe: Look for broccoli with tightly closed florets and broccoli rabe with deep green leaves and crisp stalks.
- Roast the red peppers ahead of time: You can roast the red peppers up to 3 days in advance. Simply store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Use a large skillet: A large skillet will allow the vegetables to cook evenly and prevent them from steaming.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the vegetables will steam instead of sauté.
- Cook the vegetables over medium-high heat: This will help them to brown and caramelize.
- Season the vegetables liberally: Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all great options.
- Serve the vegetables immediately: Broccoli and broccoli rabe are best served hot.
Conclusion:
This simple yet flavorful dish is a great way to enjoy the bounty of the season. The roasted red peppers add a touch of sweetness and smokiness, while the garlic and Parmesan cheese add a savory kick. Serve this dish as a main course or as a side dish with grilled or roasted meats or fish.
