Broccoli Rabe and Provolone Hot Dog
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, very thinly sliced
- 1 bunch broccoli rabe, washed and roughly chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 4 links hot or sweet Italian sausage
- 4 hot dog buns
- 8 slices provolone cheese
- Heat olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- When oil is hot, add garlic and saute until light golden brown.
- Add broccoli rabe and red pepper flakes and saute, tossing frequently, until just cooked through, about 7-8 minutes.
- Add salt and pepper to taste and remove from heat.
- Preheat grill to medium-high and grill Italian sausages with the lid closed until fully cooked and slightly charred.
- Toast buns lightly on the grill and top each with two slices of provolone, folded to fit the bun.
- Do this off the grill, or the cheese will melt too quickly and start congealing.
- Add a sausage to each bun and top generously with the broccoli rabe.
- Serve immediately.
