Grilled Fennel on the BBQ (Anise in French) image

One of the most underutilized vegetables with its anise undertones, it's one of the few I love. A woman in the grocery today gave me her recipe for it on the barbecue.

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 fennel bulb
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (or 1/2 lemon juiced)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (coarse if you have it)
1 tablespoon minced garlic
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, mustard, and garlic, salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cut off fennel stalks, quarter fennel bulb lengthwise (she said some remove the core, she doesn't bother). Brush each fennel quarter with marinade.
  • Prepare grill and preheat to medium. Grill fennel, turning several times with tongs, until slightly charred and crisp-tender. Can also be done on a ridged grill panel.
