Baked Fennel Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Clean the fennel, removing the upper fronds, and slice lengthwise into 1/2 inch slices. Set the feathery leaves aside to garnish the completed dish. Place in a saucepan and cover with milk. Simmer for about 10 minutes or until the fennel can be easily pierced with a fork. Remove the fennel and pat dry. Layer in a baking dish, drizzle with two tablespoons of the oil and add salt and pepper. Bake for about 20 minutes. Mix the remaining oil with the cheese and breadcrumbs, and sprinkle over the dish and continue baking until golden brown. This dish is great hot or at room temperature. Use the discarded feathery fronds to garnish, and serve. This is a great vegetable side dish with grilled or roasted meats.

    I haven't had much luck with fennel. It was spendy when I bought it and it didn't have any flavor...maybe it's how I cooked it...?? I am going to give this a try as I see everyone on the FoodNetwork using this vegeatable for a lot of things. This recipe sounds awesome so..I'm going to give it a go again. Any suggestions as to the protein I could serve this with? Seafood, pork chops, beef? Thanks for the post.
