Sautéed Broccoli Rabe With Garlic and Chile Flakes

Broccoli rabe has a bitter edge and sometimes fibrous stalks, both of which are tamed by prolonged cooking. In this classic Italian side dish, the rabe is blanched, then sautéed with olive oil, garlic, and chile pepper flakes until it's well past well-done—at which point it tastes best.

Grilled Pizza With Grilled Broccolini, Chilies, and Garlic

Broccolini or broccoli rabe with garlic and chilies is a classic flavor combination. In this recipe, I toss the broccolini in garlic oil before grilling it over hot coals, then apply it in whole pieces to the pie which also gets slices of fresh mozzarella and a scattering of fresh hot chilies.

Broccoli Salad With Radicchio, Basil, and Pistachios

The secret to the success of this broccoli salad is that it handles the florets and stems differently. The florets are blanched briefly, just long enough to soften them and make them juicy, while still preserving their crisp, fresh bite. The stems, meanwhile, are left raw, for a refreshing crunch. Tossed with radicchio and a bold vinaigrette made from basil and pistachios, this is a salad to make you love all the parts of broccoli.

Radicchio is a perfect example that grilling can make just about anything better. The sharp bitterness usually wreaks havoc on my taste buds, but once grilled, I found it very pleasing.
