Roasted Herb Salmon and Broccoli Rabe (Raab)

Easy Gourmet Recipe of the Month - March 2012
I've been hearing about this yummy veggie called rabe.  Slightly bitter, but packed full of flavor, I thought salmon would be a perfect pairing.  I picked up my bunch of rabe at Costco, along with the salmon.

Ingredients:
Olive Oil
Salmon fillets 3 oz.
Broccoli Rabe (Raab or Broccolette) cut into 3" pieces.
Garlic cloves finely chopped or pressed.to taste.
Herbes de Provence
Lemon Pepper spice
Parmigiano Reggiano
Lemons


Instructions:
Heat oven to 350.  On a cookie sheet, toss rabe with olive oil, garlic and lemon pepper spice. Spread out.  Wash and pat dry salmon fillets and coat with olive oil and too -  place on pan.  Sprinkle with Herbs de Provence.  Roast in oven 12-15 minutes till rabe is tender. Sprinkle Parmigiano Reggiano over rabe and squeeze lemon on salmon prior to service.   Serve with side of Cousous or another starch.
