This is an easy way to cook fennel bulbs. Pan-fried fennel tastes great and you don't need a lot of seasoning as fennel has so much flavor on its own, which just intensifies while cooking. Sprinkle fennel greens on top before serving for even more flavor.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds fennel bulbs , sliced, green tops reserved
- 3 tablespoons olive oil , or as needed
- salt to taste
- 1 pinch lemon pepper , or to taste
Instructions
-
1

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Lay some fennel slices in a single layer in the pan; cook until nicely browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and lemon pepper. Remove from pan. Add another tablespoon oil and layer in the next batch of fennel slices and cook the same way. Repeat with remaining oil and fennel. Serve sprinkled with fennel greens.

Making duck rillettes is one of the most amazing culinary magic tricks of all time. Even though most of the spread is made up of fairly lean duck meat, by emulsifying it in a little butter, duck fat, and duck gelatin, you'll swear the final product has the fat content of the finest foie gras torchon.
