Number Of Ingredients 8

8 baby fennel bulbs, trimmed
1 tablespoon butter
4 ½ teaspoons minced garlic
4 ½ teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
1 shallot, quartered lengthwise
2 cups dry white wine
salt and pepper to taste
6 ounces goat cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add baby fennel, and cook until just tender, about 10 minutes, then drain.
  • Butter the bottom of a shallow baking dish, and sprinkle with garlic, rosemary, and shallots. Arrange the fennel in the baking dish, and pour in the white wine. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Bake uncovered in preheated oven for 30 minutes, basting occasionally. Set the oven to Broil, then sprinkle the fennel with crumbled goat cheese. Broil for a few minutes until the cheese has melted.
