In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook broccoli rabe until bright green, 45 to 60 seconds. Drain; set aside.
-
Toast pine nuts in a skillet over medium heat, shaking skillet, until evenly golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes; remove from skillet. Heat oil in skillet. Add broccoli rabe; cook, tossing occasionally, until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.

Variations
On "Martha Stewart's Cooking School," Martha first cooked the thick stems of the broccoli rabe for 1 minute, then added the thinner stems and cooked them for 1 minute; the tops were added last and cooked until bright green, 30 to 45 seconds. The cooked broccoli rabe was immediately transferred to an ice-water bath until cooled, then drained.
