Easy and beautiful and tastes wonderful. A go to dinner after work, as well as parties. Used whatever veggies I have on hand. Never seem to have fennel, but no big deal. Or skip the veggies and serve on a bed of lettuce or in a salad.

I really enjoyed this dish. I did not use the fennel because the store was out so I took a chance and used tarragon instead. I really found the dish to be full of flavor and just delish! I would make this again.
