Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 fennel bulbs (about 2 pounds)
two 14-ounce cans artichoke hearts, drained and quartered or, if large, cut into eighths
2 tomatoes, chopped
1/4 cup pitted Nicoise or other brine-cured black olives
1 ounce (about 3) flat anchovy fillets, drained, minced, and mashed to a paste
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon dried orégano, crumbled
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Trim the feathery tops from the fennel bulbs, reserving several for garnish, and trim the stalks to the point where they meet the bulb, reserving them for another use. Quarter the bulbs, discarding the core, and slice the quarters thin crosswise. In a large bowl combine the fennel, the artichoke hearts, the tomatoes, and the olives. In a bowl whisk together the anchovy past, the oil, the lemon juice, the orégano, and the thyme. Toss the fennel mixture with the dressing, season it with the pepper and salt, and garnish the salad with the reserved fennel tops.

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 22

Filling
1 tablespoon olive oil
5 large garlic cloves, chopped
1/4 teaspoon fennel seeds
1 9-ounce package frozen artichoke hearts, unthawed
1/2 cup chopped fresh fennel
1/2 cup canned vegetable broth or water
2 tablespoons minced fresh fennel fronds
1 egg yolk
32 to 36 gyoza (round) wrappers or wonton wrappers
1 egg white
Sauce
1/4 cup olive oil
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 cup chopped fresh fennel
1 1/4 teaspoons fennel seeds
1 28-ounce can Italian tomatoes
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
Fresh fennel fronds

Steps:

  • For filling:
  • Heat olive oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add chopped garlic and fennel seeds and sauté 3 minutes. Add artichoke hearts and chopped fennel and stir 1 minute. Add vegetable broth and bring mixture to boil. Cover skillet and cook until vegetables are very tender, about 12 minutes. Uncover and simmer until pan juices have evaporated completely, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Scrape filling into processor and cool. Add fennel fronds and process to coarse puree. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add yolk and blend.
  • Line baking sheet with plastic wrap. If using wonton wrappers, trim edges to form rounds. Brush entire surface of 1 wrapper lightly with egg white. Place 1 rounded teaspoon filling in center. Fold dough over, forming semi-circle. Seal edges, pressing out any air around filling. Place on prepared sheet. Repeat with remaining filling and wrappers. (Ravioli can be prepared ahead. Cover loosely with towel and plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 8 hours, or cover with plastic and freeze 3 days. Do not thaw frozen ravioli before cooking.)
  • For sauce:
  • Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add garlic, fennel and fennel seeds and sauté until tender, about 12 minutes. Add tomatoes with their juices and next 4 ingredients. Simmer until sauce thickens, breaking up tomatoes with back of spoon, about 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover; chill. Rewarm before using.)
  • Boil ravioli in large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well. Spoon some sauce on each plate. Arrange ravioli atop sauce. Garnish with fresh fennel fronds.

SHEET-PAN CHICKEN WITH ARTICHOKES AND HERBS



Sheet-Pan Chicken With Artichokes and Herbs image

This weeknight sheet-pan dinner takes inspiration from porchetta, the classic Italian pork roast that's scented with fennel and herbs. Here, a fragrant spice rub of ground fennel, garlic, rosemary and sage is placed onto chicken thighs, instantly elevating plain chicken with minimal effort. Canned artichokes are a versatile and time-saving pantry staple, commonly tossed into salads but here, they are fantastic roasted. The juicy chicken thighs create a bright pan sauce mixed with briny olives and lemon juice. Leftovers can be chopped and tossed with mayonnaise for a fantastic chicken salad the next day.

Provided by Amanda Hesser

Categories     project, appetizer

Time 50m

Yield 4 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Juice of 1 lemon
12 small artichokes
1 bulb fennel, trimmed
1/4 cup thinly shaved Parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, crushed and finely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 quarts vegetable or canola oil
1 cup milk
1/2 cup flour
Olive oil, for sprinkling
1 lemon, cut into quarters
Kosher salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Fill a large bowl with water, and add lemon juice. Peel away outer leaves of artichokes, leaving tender pale green leaves. Peel stems, and cut off spiny tops of leaves. Cut lengthwise into quarters. Immediately add artichokes to water.
  • Slice fennel bulb in half through the root. Slice each half crosswise, about 1/4 inch thick. Slices should be half-moon shapes. Place fennel in a medium bowl, and set aside. In a small bowl, combine cheese, garlic and parsley. Toss gently to mix.
  • In a large deep pan, heat oil over medium-low heat to 275 degrees. Drain artichokes, and dry completely with a dish towel. Add artichokes to oil, and cook until they begin to open and brown. Remove from pan, and let drain on paper towels.

Drop fennel and artichokes into oil, and fry until golden brown and crispy. Using a strainer, remove from oil and place on a plate lined with paper towels. Let drain for 30 seconds, then transfer to a large bowl. Sprinkle parsley mixture and a little olive oil over artichoke mixture. Season with salt. Toss briefly to combine ingredients. Transfer to a serving bowl or platter, with lemon wedges.

SHAVED FENNEL, ARTICHOKE, AND PARMESAN SALAD



Shaved Fennel, Artichoke, and Parmesan Salad image

Provided by Alice Waters

Categories     Salad     No-Cook     Vegetarian     Parmesan     Lemon     Artichoke     Fennel     Parsley

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large artichokes
2 lemons
2 large fennel bulbs
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 to 2 tablespoons white truffle oil
salt and pepper
1 piece Reggiano Parmesan cheese (about 3 ounces)
About 1/2 cup Italian parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Pare the artichokes down to their hearts and scoop out the chokes with a spoon, dropping them into water acidulated with the juice of 1 of the lemons.
  • Cut off the feathery tops of the fennel at the base of their stalks and remove the outer layer of the bulbs. Slice the bulbs very thin with a mandolin or a very sharp knife. Remove the artichoke hearts from the water and slice them very thin the same way.
  • Assemble the salad in layers on a large platter or on individual salad plates. First make a layer of the fennel slices. Squeeze lemon juice evenly over the fennel and drizzle with salt and pepper. Then make a layer of the artichoke hearts, also slice very thin. Squeeze more lemon juice over them, drizzle evenly with another third of the oils, and season with salt and pepper. Cut thin shavings of the Parmesan with cheese slicer or a vegetable peeler and arrange them on top of the artichoke slices. Scatter the parsley leaves over the cheese, season with salt and pepper, squeeze more lemon juice over, and drizzle evenly with the rest of the oils. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the crudo will taste. Look for artichokes that are firm and have tightly packed leaves, and fennel that is crisp and white.
  • Slice the vegetables thinly: This will help them to marinate evenly and cook quickly. You can use a mandoline or a sharp knife to slice the vegetables.
  • Marinate the vegetables for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the vegetables. You can marinate the vegetables for longer if you have time.
  • Use a variety of citrus fruits in the marinade: This will add a bright and acidic flavor to the crudo. You can use oranges, lemons, limes, or grapefruits.
  • Add some herbs to the marinade: This will add additional flavor and complexity to the crudo. You can use basil, mint, cilantro, or parsley.
  • Serve the crudo immediately: This dish is best enjoyed fresh. You can garnish it with some additional citrus zest, herbs, or shaved Parmesan cheese.

Conclusion:

Artichoke and fennel crudo is a light, refreshing, and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer appetizer or light lunch. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its vibrant colors and delicious flavors, this crudo is sure to impress your guests.
