Easy Broccoli Rabe Recipe 

Since I can't find broccoli rabe where I live I figured I'd enjoy watching you cook my favorite italian vegetable! I can smell the garlic.....mmmmm thanks!!

Thank you for sharing. I'm black, from the Caribbean, and my boyfriend is American Italian, and boy, does he love garlic. I love your way of cooking broccoli rabe because you don't boil it then pour all the great nutrients down the drain. I'm cooking 2 huge bunches for him tight now. They are super loaded with garlic and exotic hot peppers.

So glad to see you using all of the broccoli rabe and sauteeing it. So many others on YT cut off the whole stem and throw it away, then they boil it. Your way is the way I grew up with. Sautéed with plenty of garlic.

Glad to see you use Andy Boy broccoli rabe! Only brand to eat!

Just bought my first bunch of broccoli rabe and wasn't sure what to do with it... thanks, Vincent !

Just cooked Rapini for the first time. Thank goodness I watched your video first. I will be adding it to my table again.

I love your recipes..keep them coming… your broccoli, rob recipe was excellent 🥦🍝

I never thought about cooking stems first. Thanks!!🙂

Many years ago, I made a Julia Child recipe with broccoli rabe, sausage and orchietta pasta. And you’re right: people overthink the rapini! Thank you for presenting it in a not-so-intimidating way! My husband brought some home today, and thanks to you, he will have that for dinner tonight!

Oh be my God! Thank you so much! You made rapini just like the way my Italian mom cook it. Ma added it sometimes to pasta. It brought back the aroma of Ma's kitchen. GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!! I will be watching your you tube from now on.♥️🙏

Vince, I showed this video to my husband and he says he is not impressed unless you show us how to cook it using Ryobi tools. :-) I did find this recipe to be the best way to cook broccoli rabe.

Growing this for my first time this season. Thanks for simple good cooking

Man, I really appreciate you keeping it simple. I don't enjoy cooking, but I listened to your greens and beans video and really impressed myself and my husband with what I made. I also didn't hate making it! Super big thanks!

Love this video. Nothing like an Italian cook! Thee best. I grew my own broccoli rabe this year. Tomorrow I harvest and cook! Where’s the Italian bread? Lol.

Vincent, you are awesome man , especially with separating the stem from the leaves & flowers. Just the right way to go ...

One thing I can eat till I get sick!!!...love it with sausage the best!👏👏

Great video thank you! Also, I loled when you poured your olive oil into your pot with that giant box lol

I got 2 from Wal-mart and I don't know how to cook it, hence watching this video. Thanks for sharing. I can smell and taste the rapini through my screen 😁

I never made broccoli rabe before, but I will starting today. I love my healthy greens.

I’m not even close to being Italian but I looooooove Italian dishes so I’ve learned to make them but this broccoli rabe recipe is the easiest I’ve ever seen someone taught me to blanche it first but your recipe is the bomb and took less time 😱 I’m soooo hungry for some now 😂😂I can eat this 7 days of the week thank you you’re a great chef btw this is my first time watching your channel and definitely not my last I like your simplicity and honesty 💕💕❤️❤️

I love eating this veggie but never tried cooking it myself. Came upon this vid & enjoyed it very much. I’m gonna follow this recipe bcz it seemed simple enough. I don’t enjoy complicated cooking either. TY!

Excellent!! Thank you for such an easy recipe and great presentation.

Great recipe! Love it with the sausage

Thanks so much for taking time to go through all steps. This will be my first time making the dish for Christmas dinner, I’m confident it will be awesome! Happy Holidays!

31 mentions of Broccoli Rabe.... Yes I was counting... Great video and presentation.

You have my favorite recipe, keep it simple.

All that and he can cook too... looks fantastic..

I love broccoli raab! And I love the stems

I just bought Broccoli Rabe yesterday. I lucked up on your video how to cook it. I'm going to do it your style. Thanks for recipe! Have a Great Day!!

Second time watching this video love it and made it a couple times love it !

Broccoli Rabe looks awesome Gonna make just like that 👍

I am going to try your way! I've made it before but used a slightly different recipe. Your way sounds really good.

I almost bought this at the supermarket but I didn't know how to prepare it. Thanks for the recipe - I'm going to try this.

Hey Vincent. My daughters and I loved watching your video. We're making broccoli rabe tonight for Father's Day! We knew you were a hometown Philly boy as soon as we starting watching. We recognized many things in your kitchen that we had also. Can't wait to try your broccoli rabe! We'll let you know how it turns out. I want to try that sausage place you talked about too!

Love the simplicity of your recipe. Thanks !

Vincent, Thank you for your video- I watched it 3 times to get the best outcome. Today,I am cooking broccoli rabe for the first time and will follow your recipe. Funny, in the grocery store I did hear all of the things that people do when cooking broccoli rabe and found your approach to be the best one for us. - Very similar to how I make escarole and beans.

Good energy! I made it! Pretty satisfied. I wish I had Parmesan tho

Yum, I’m gonna try it now!

omg, just the way my Nonna did it, was looking for different ways, but who cares, this is the best way, especially with the sausage!

I have never actually made broccoli rabe. Now I must! Thanks Vin

And that's exactly how i will cook it today ! Thank you 💋

Good job Vincent. Wish I could get the real Italian sausage with fennel but I did buy broccoli rabe and making it for company tomorrow with a Sicilian swordfish recipe. You make it right. Bellissimo.

My wife just presented me with a big bunch of homegrown Broccoli Rabe, using your recipe tonight

You are an amazing chef, this is my first time watching you and I can assure you it won’t be the last time. Thanks for posting!

like the Andy boy today i'm giving your recipe a try pretty sure i'm going to like it (here I Go) OKEY all done came out great I like cutting the stems shorter small peace 2 rolls later thanks

Love your recipe. I love broccoli rabe but never had a good time preparing it. You made it so easy and will now eat more broccoli rabe. I want to go to Philly now and get those sausages!

Made this tonight...was delicious. Thank you for the video.

I cooked fresh broccoli rabe for the first time about 2 weeks ago. I basically did what you have shown here but mine was bitter. I’m going to try cutting the stem & separate it from the leaves & flowers to cook first and try it again. Thanks for the info!

Well made and expressing the simplicity of the products

Vincent--You bring back many cool memories for me of my cousins (12 of them) from South Jersey. Even though my family lived in New York, visiting them was our "vacation" in the summer and they had the BEST tomatoes on earth. Thanks for your charming and funny and very Italian, way of speaking and thinking. The only thing i didn't hear was the way they pronounced the word "Acme" as in "Ach-a -me" Superrmarket! All the best to you!

Will pick some up the next time we go to the market. Thanks for sharing...

I like your method of dividing the broccoli rabe for cooking time, thank you.

I’ve never made it I’m deff gonna try your recipe!!! Thanks for the video ! Hoping it comes out like yours

Vincent…you can cook for me anytime. Simple…clean…to the point!

Wanted an easy video and this was perfect. Made it and it came delicious.

I knew from the min i turned on the video u were from philly! Making this tonight

Loved the Video,Spot On!!!

Bill C from Jersey Vince was gonna blanche the BR but you swayed me. Like Red pepper flaked. Luv Broccoli Rabe! Tx.

Sold! It was perfect. Thank you.

Wow, I can smell it cooking, smell delicious.

Thank you just discovered this yummy ness and you just helped me make it for the first time

So easy is right not too many steps I’m going to make it this next time I have broccoli rabe

Great kitchen and thank you for the greens recipes! Can u show how high your flame 🔥 is and how much oil to begin?

One of my favorite dishes... Rabe, sausage n orecchiette. Thx PBS n Lidia

You are a great cook!👍

Thank you! Making this for dinner with hot Italian sausage. Your video is very user friendly!

Going to do this for lunch today... No brainer... Well done.

Looks yummy! I never sauté my stems first so good tip

Excellent! Love your videos, but I’m from Brooklyn where we say “saw-sage”🤣

Just the way I cook it (I’m Welsh) - I’m the only one in my family who loves broccoli rabe - I can’t always come across a decent sausage - but I often get fennel seed and grind it up and add it to compensate, it’s also tasty in marinara sauce

Great job. Explained well. Good pace.

That looks great I think I will be doing this recipe also but I think I will cook my sausage first and use the oil from the sausage to salute the rabe. Love that you cook the stems first great video. Keep cooking vince

Good excellent mouth watering! Thank you very much 😉!

Loooove Rapini annnnd this video. I'm so happy I came upon it. You did a great job of this. It kept my attention and your delivery, heart warming. I have to tell you though, I do quickly soft boil my rapini (stalks first) before I saute it, only because, I loooove the broth that is rendered so I can dip true bruschetta in it's broth. Rapini is not easily found where I live in Atlantic Canada!! Today, I just happened to go to a grocery store, I rarely go to, glanced around while in the produce section and BOOM …. there was Rapini … $4.99 a bunch. I bought them all!!! $35.00 later, I was a happy Nonna. hahahahhaaa. I called the store when I got home and they have 4 bunches in the cooler that I will pick up and their next order comes in next week. I'm on it! I definitely have to research how to grow rapini in the Maritime climate. Thank you so much for your wonderful video! It truly brightened my day! All the best to you and yours always from the east coast of Canada.

Hi Vincent my son and 9 year old son enjoy your cooking keep them coming!!

Thanks 😊 hun!! Very helpful information ℹ️

I missed lunch and I stupidly pushed on your video...what was I thinking?... Can drooling be added as a like? 😆 This looks wonderful and I'll definitely be using your suggestion of cooking the stems first, love it! Thank you!

Thank you Vincenzo....loved the video. Clear an precise. I now know how to cook Broccoli Rabe 👍❤️👌

Thank you for sharing your recipe! To bad I can’t buy the sausages in California

Hey that looks pretty good😋😋😋I really love this recipe and it’s very easy!! Thanks for sharing my friend 😌👍

Simple and delicios

Great.... why did I have to watch this... at 3 am. I have PLENTY of garlic...but don't have the broccoli... and no stores are 24/7 anymore. When you said homemade sausage... I thought that you made it yourself.... lol.. So ... I'm hungry now ... but thanks for a recipe to use some of my nearly 40 cloves of garlic... October is coming soon and the next batch will be planted for next year.

Great video!!

I’m going to try it this way. Everyone loves the way I cook mine but it takes me hours. I separate the flowers, cut the stringy parts off the stems, and boil

‘Rabes’ and sausages. Yum!!

THANK YOU FOR SHARING, THUMBS UP.

Hey man that looks absolutely delicious 🤤

The old school motto is the bitter the better no pot boiling or blanching

Awesome recipie. Greetings from Hicks & Ritner

This is the way to do it!❤️ Thank you!😷

Vin, who taught you how to cook? You’re wife is a lucky, lucky woman. I’m still amazed how meticulous you are about everything. You cook just like I do. 💕

I like how you made it. That way it stays bitter and crispy. If you put the lid on, the bitterness gets steamed out, and it is mushy. You did it the right way cooking the thicker parts first. Then you don't waste it, and it is more intersting. It usually isn't cheap to buy it. I added a little wine vinegar to mine, and it came out less bitter also. I like it better the way you did it though.

Love you Vincent. Your awesome. Christ be with you

That's what I'm talking about lol..looks great!

Bro you nailed it I’m Irish and that looked delicious are you born and raised in south Philadelphia?

Wow very yummy to your cooking recipe.. 😍😍

1:43 thats the most elegant kitchen faucet i have ever seen!.........i shall name it "Elegant Faucet"

Vince ...we make the Broccoli Rabe the same. I don't know maybe I'm hungry but, I may like the cooking videos more than the tools vids. Anyway loving the food. And oh where's the bread?

What do you think about par boiling the rabe before sautéing it?

Good video. Really got a kick out of the way you say sausage too...😂 "Soss-age" Here in jersey we saw "Saws-age"
