Basic Rapini

INGREDIENTS

1 bunch rapini (about 1 lb)
3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, sliced
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
1/4 tsp sea salt

DIRECTIONS

Trim off tough bottoms of rapini stalks (about 1/4 inch from base of stalks). Bring salted water to a boil in a deep skillet, add rapini, cover and cook stalks until tender, about 6 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

In the same skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Fry garlic and crushed red pepper until garlic begins to brown, about 2 minutes. Add rapini and salt and heat through.
