Vietnamese-Flavored Broccoli Rabe

By Heritage330

Ingredients

• 1 bunch broccoli rabe (about 1 pound), trimmed and chopped
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce (see Note)
• 1 1/2 teaspoons lime juice
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/8-1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
• 1 tablespoon canola oil

Preparation

Step 1

Cook broccoli rabe in a large pot of boiling water until bright green and barely tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain in a colander and gently press out as much water as possible.

Combine fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, garlic and crushed red pepper to taste in a small bowl; stir until the sugar is dissolved.

Heat oil in a Dutch oven or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli rabe and cook, stirring, until just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the fish sauce mixture and cook, stirring, 1 minute more.
