Broiled Fennel With Tomatoes And Parmesan Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Core and thinly slice 2 fennel bulbs; chop some of the fronds. Peel the cloves from 1 garlic bulb and toss with the fennel and fronds, 1 quartered lemon, 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon each salt and sugar on a baking sheet. Roast in a 500 degrees F oven until golden, about 20 minutes. Toss in 1 pint grape tomatoes; roast until the tomatoes burst, 7 more minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Trim the fennel, leaving the bulb intact. Cut each fennel lengthwise into 1/2-inch slices. Arrange the slices in one layer in a baking dish or pan.
• Sprinkle the fennel evenly with salt, pepper and cumin. Brush the top of the slices with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil.
• Place the fennel slices under the broiler about 6 inches from the heat, leaving the door partly open. Broil 5 minutes. Turn the fennel and brush with remaining oil. Cook 5 minutes.
• Sprinkle the fennel with the cheese, return it to the broiler and broil until it is lightly browned.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Blanch the fennel bulbs and drain them. Pour the oil into a baking dish that can be used both on top of the stove and in the oven. Add the garlic and the fennel and cook over medium heat until the bulbs start to turn golden.
• Add the tomatoes, salt and pepper. Cook over low heat for five minutes.
• Sprinkle on the bread crumbs and cheese. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the top is browned and bubbling.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Lightly oil the bottom of a 13 by 9 by 2-inch glass baking dish. Arrange the fennel in the dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then with the Parmesan. Drizzle with the oil. Bake until the fennel is fork-tender and the top is golden brown, about 45 minutes. Chop enough fennel fronds to equal 2 teaspoons, then sprinkle over the roasted fennel and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to high.
• Trim the fennel, leaving the bulbs intact. Cut each bulb lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange the slices in one layer in a baking dish.
• Brush the fennel with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Sprinkle the fennel with salt and pepper. Put the fennel slices under the broiler about 6 inches from the heat. Broil 5 minutes. Turn the slices and cook 3 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, core and halve the tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange the tomatoes, cut side up, around the fennel. Brush with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Sprinkle the fennel and tomatoes with cheese. Broil 2 minutes and sprinkle with the herbs. Serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Nestle the fennel into a skillet, baking dish, or sheet pan so that it fits in one layer. Drizzle with the olive oil, turning to coat all sides. Season with salt and pepper, then finely grate half the pecorino cheese over the top. Roast until the fennel is fork-tender, about 45 minutes.
• Place the tomatoes, cut-side up, on top of the fennel. Turn the oven to broil. Broil the tomatoes until slightly charred and warmed through, 6 to 8 minutes. Sprinkle the olives and crumble the remaining pecorino cheese over the top before serving. Garnish with the parsley.

Steps:

• Place an oven rack 6 inches from the top of the oven, preheat the broiler, and and arrange tomato slices on a foil-lined baking sheet.
• Combine olive oil, basil, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl and brush onto the tops of the tomatoes.
• Combine bread crumbs, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese in a small bowl and sprinkle the mixture over the tomatoes.
• Place under the broiler until topping starts to brown, 3 to 4 minutes, checking frequently to avoid burning.
• Transfer tomatoes to a plate, drizzle with balsamic vinegar, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat a broiler according to manufacturer's recommendations. Line a baking sheet or small sheet pan with aluminum foil.
• Slice tomatoes in half crossways. Slice thin slices off of the round part of the tomato halves so they will sit straight on the pan.
• Place tomato halves on the prepared pan and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning to taste.
• Place seasoned tomatoes under the broiler and broil about 4 minutes. Be sure to watch carefully, so they won't burn.
• Sprinkle 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese on each tomato half, and return to the broiler.
• Broil until Parmesan cheese is melted and bubbly, 45 seconds to 1 minute.
• Transfer broiled tomatoes on a plate or serving platter and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Slice tomatoes in half. Using a small spoon, remove seeds. Place tomato halves on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Combine the oil, garlic and pepper. Brush over tomatoes. Sprinkle with basil., Broil about 6 in. from heat for 3-4 minutes or until heated through. In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle over tomatoes. Broil 1-2 minutes longer or until crumbs are lightly browned. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or nonstick aluminum foil.
• Remove stems and core from fennel bulbs. Reserve a handful of fronds. Dice fennel into bite-sized pieces. Toss fennel and fronds with Parmesan cheese, oil, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn fennel with a spatula and roast until crisp-tender and browned on both sides, 5 to 10 more minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Cut the base off of the fennel bulbs, and cut a cone shape into the base to remove the core. You can see the core because it is whiter than the surrounding green. This is optional, but helps the fennel cook faster. Slice the fennel vertically (upright) into 1/4 inch thick slices.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fennel, and fry for about 5 minutes. Stir in the half-and-half and creme fraiche until well blended. Transfer to a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top.
• Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is golden brown and the fennel is tender enough to pierce with a fork.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Arrange fennel halves cut side down in 8 x 8 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Drizzle with 1 1/2 tablespoons oil. Roast until fennel is light brown and tender, about 45 minutes. Cool. Cut fennel into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Heat remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic and sauté until onions are tender, about 6 minutes. Add tomatoes with juice, oregano and sugar; bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened to sauce consistency, about 6 minutes. Add fennel and simmer 5 minutes longer. Season sauce with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, cook spaghettini in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite. Drain. Return pasta to same pot.
• Add sauce to pasta; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to large bowl. Sprinkle with Parmesan and serve.
