Title: Broccoli Rabe with Figs and Pine Nuts
2 - bunches broccoli rabe, coarsely chopped
2 T olive oil
3 - cloves garlic, minced
1/3 C dried figs, coarsely chopped
1/4 C pine nuts
0 - salt and pepper
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli rabe and boil for 5 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the figs and pine nuts and cook until the pine nuts are lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Stir in the broccoli rabe and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Serve hot.

This is delicious, but mostly because it's broccoli rabe, which I adore. Honestly, broccoli rabe probably tastes better just sauteed in olive oil and garlic, but the fig and pine nut combo also tastes good and might be even better with other greens like collards.
