Ingredients

1 pound broccoli rabe, trimmed and cut across into 1-inch pieces
7 tablespoons olive oil
2 19-ounce cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
3/4 cup thinly sliced, peeled celery
4 teaspoons red-wine vinegar
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Place the broccoli rabe in a 14-by-9-by-2-inch oval dish, and toss with 4 tablespoons of the olive oil. Cover tightly with microwave plastic wrap. Cook at 100 percent power in a high-power oven for 8 minutes. Prick plastic to release steam.
Remove from oven and uncover. Let cool to room temperature. Place in a bowl and gently stir in the remaining ingredients.
