Ingredients

4 tablespoons olive oil
4 fennel bulbs, cut horizontally into 1/3-inch thick slices, fronds reserved
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup freshly shredded Parmesan

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Lightly oil the bottom of a 13 by 9 by 2-inch glass baking dish. Arrange the fennel in the dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then with the Parmesan. Drizzle with the oil. Bake until the fennel is fork-tender and the top is golden brown, about 45 minutes. Chop enough fennel fronds to equal 2 teaspoons, then sprinkle over the roasted fennel and serve.

Holiday Favorite
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Super easy and unique! This has become a holiday dinner favorite of ours (it seems fancy)... been using it for the past 5... years or so. Even people who are a bit skeptical about that licorice flavor can be converted. I love to squeeze fresh lemon juice on it right before serving to give it a little acidity and really bring out the flavor. Awesome!Read more

Easy and delicious
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is a great side dish and easy way to make fennel. It's sooo yummy - I made it a year ago and loved it. I've been... waiting for fennel to come back in season so I can make it at an affordable price. It's usually very expensive in the grocery stores in Northern California.Read more
