Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Meanwhile, trim the ends from broccoli rabe and thinly slice garlic cloves. In a medium bowl, toss broccoli rabe and garlic with olive oil, salt, and freshly ground pepper.

Place on a large, rimmed baking sheet and roast until crisp-tender and leaves are slightly charred, 8 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle on red pepper flakes and drizzle with balsamic vinegar before serving.
