Grilled Fennel

Grilled Fennel
  • 2 fennel bulbs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch dried thyme
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese


  1. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  2. Slice a very thin layer from the bottom of each fennel bulb using a vegetable peeler or paring knife, leaving the core in place to help hold bulb intact. Remove fennel stalks, reserving fronds. Slice bulbs vertically into 1/4-inch slices. Brush slices with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with ground black pepper and salt on each side.
  3. Grill fennel slices until charred, about 5 minutes per side; transfer to serving platter.
  4. Whisk remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, basil, parsley, lemon juice, lemon zest, freshly ground black pepper, thyme, and reserved fennel fronds together in a bowl. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and drizzle lemon mixture over fennel.
