Mediterranean Broccoli Rabe

0

One of my favorite sides that I grew up eating is this spicy, garlic flavored broccoli rabe. It pairs perfectly with fish, chicken, steak or pasta. Not only that, it comes together quickly once you get the greens washed and ready to go.

Every step of this recipe is important but an absolute must for this dish is the olive oil and lemon at the end.
