From EatingWell:  March/April 2010

Although somewhat unconventional, grilling dark leafy greens like broccoli rabe is a fun way to add subtle smokiness. Here, we bump up the flavor by tossing it with a garlic-rosemary vinaigrette.

4 servings, about 2/3 cup each | Active Time: 20 minutes | Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 bunch broccoli rabe (about 1 pound), trimmed
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 teaspoons red-wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Preparation

1. Preheat grill to medium-high.
2. Cook broccoli rabe in a large pot of boiling water until bright green and barely tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse with cold water; drain well.
3. Combine oil, vinegar, garlic powder, rosemary, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
4. Grill the broccoli rabe, turning once, until tender and the leaves are just beginning to char, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Toss the broccoli rabe with the reserved dressing.
