Never have nine ingredients come together to make my mouth water as much as the ones in this crazy-good, Italian grilled-cheese sandwich. Olive oil-sautéed bitter broccoli rabe, anchovies, garlic, crushed red pepper, roast beef, sweet-spicy Peppadew peppers, provolone and crusty bread are all pressed together to make a gooey, crunchy mess. For me, it honestly doesn’t get better. If I’m rushed, I don’t even blanch the broccoli rabe before sautéing it. All good, since I love bitter flavors. I can feel my salivary glands getting a bit active! SEE RECIPE »
