Instructions
- Cut off the stalks of the fennel. With a vegetable peeler, remove any brown spots, then cut off the bottom 1/4" of the fennel. Cut the fennel into 1/2" thick slices.
- Toss the fennel with a 1/4 cup olive oil, 1 tsp kosher salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Chop a 1/4 cup of fresh parsley and cut the lemons in half.
- Grill the fennel for 5 minutes per side over medium to medium-high heat until nicely charred. Grill the lemon halves (flesh side down) until nicely charred as well (about 3- 5 minutes).
- Arrange the fennel and lemons in a large platter. Sprinkle the 1/4 cup of oil-cured olives on top. Shave a healthy amount of the Parmigiano Reggiano onto the salad. Drizzle a 1/4 or more of the extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with the fresh parsley. Taste test and if desired add a touch of coarse sea salt to finish. Enjoy!
Notes
- Oil-cured olives are quite salty. Rinsing them in a strainer will remove some of their salt.
- The entire fennel bulb is edible, but the recipe uses the bigger cut pieces of the bulb.
- Good quality parmesan or Grana Padano can be substituted for the Parmigiano Reggiano.
