I agree about adding more garlic! I would also add some pepper flakes to the aioli for a little kick. I really liked this dish; it was a light, healthy meal on a warm summer night. Fennel is one of my all time favorite things but I would like to try letting it marinate since it was quite tough chewing! Overall, I will likely make this again, with a couple of changes!

The chicken and red pepper aioli was very flavorful and moist; I will try poaching chicken again. The fennel salad could use some time to marinate to break down and temper the fennel flavor. I don't think I sliced the fennel thin enough, so it was a bit over powerful, but it was perfect the next day!

I was a little apprehensive of the shaved fennel salad, but absolutely loved it! Shaving it and adding the parsley and red pepper combined with the dressing was wonderful. I used chicken tender cuts and should have reduced the cooking time to about 15 minutes instead of the 30 minutes in the recipe. I only poached the chicken 20 minutes, but it was more done than I would have preferred. The aioli was wonderful, but anything with roasted red peppers is always a hit with me. The next time I make this recipe I will add more garlic. Four cloves of garlic seemed appropriate, but I would have preferred a stronger garlic presence. I should have followed my rule, "if it calls for one clove, use three".
