This is delicious. I used regular broccoli that I had on hand and it was still fantastic. This will be a staple for weeknight meals for sure.

Looking for a way to use up some broccoli and this looked interesting. Very easy and we all thought the flavor was really good. Will definitely try this again. Might look for the rabe but plain old broccoli works too.

The family was leery of broccoli rabe, but this had such fantastic flavor- delicious! Very asian. We loved it and my veggie haters were actually sad that the rabe cooks down to such a small amount!
