Broccoli Rabe And Peppers Panini With Cheese And Hot Honey Recipes

Steps:

• Cook 1 pound broccoli florets and 1 sliced red bell pepper in salted boiling water until just tender, about 3 minutes; drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water to cool, then drain again. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, 2 sliced garlic cloves and 2 to 4 crushed dried red chiles and cook 30 seconds. Add the broccoli and bell pepper and cook 2 minutes. Season with salt.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Toss broccoli rabe with olive oil, salt and red pepper flakes. Toss garlic cloves into rabe and spread on a sheet pan.
• Roast rabe for about 10 minutes. It's done when the stems are tender and the leaves are crisp at the edges.

Steps:

• Cook 2 bunches broccoli rabe in a steamer basket until tender, 7 minutes. Meanwhile, cook 2 sliced garlic cloves in a pot with 1 tablespoon olive oil until golden; add 1/4 cup sliced jarred cherry peppers and 2 tablespoons liquid from the jar. Toss in the broccoli rabe and salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and top with shaved parmesan.

Steps:

• Preheat a panini press to 400 degrees F.
• Bring 3 to 4 inches of water to a boil, salt it and add the broccoli rabe. Cook at low boil 4 minutes. Cold shock in ice water and drain; pat dry on kitchen towels.
• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with EVOO, 3 turns of the pan. Swirl in garlic, 1 minute or so, then add rabes and toss to combine. Add juice of 1/2 lemon.
• Build panini: Roll bottom, provolone, rabes, hot and sweet peppers, shaved fennel, red onion, semi-dried tomatoes, red pepper pecorino. Dress top of roll with hot honey and set in place. Press to crisp bread and warm sandwich.

Steps:

• Cook broccoli rabe in a 4-quart pot of boiling salted water , uncovered, until tender, about 3 minutes. Drain well in a colander, then chop.
• Cook anchovies and garlic in 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until garlic just begins to turn golden, about 1 minute. Add broccoli rabe and cook, stirring, 1 minute.
• Heat a panini or sandwich press according to manufacturer's instructions until hot. (Alternatively, heat a well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderate heat.)
• Brush 4 center slices of bread on 1 side with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil. (Reserve remainder of loaf for another use.) Put slices, oiled sides down, on a work surface, then divide half of cheese between 2 slices. Top with all of broccoli rabe mixture, remaining cheese, and remaining 2 bread slices, oiled sides up.
• Put sandwiches on press, then pull down top onto sandwiches and cook until sandwiches are browned and crisp, 4 to 8 minutes. (If using grill pan, put a heavy pan on top of sandwiches and cook, turning sandwiches over once.)

Steps:

• Cook broccoli rabe in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Drain and transfer to bowl of ice water to cool. Drain again; pat dry. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Wrap in paper towels. Enclose in plastic bag and chill.)
• Heat olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add broccoli rabe and sauté until heated through, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Sprinkle 4 tablespoons cheese over and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to warm platter. Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons cheese over.
