How to Make It
Step 1
Trim the tops from the fennel plus any fronds. Slice the fennel bulbs from top to bottom into 4 even-sized pieces. Brush the fennel pieces with a tablespoon of olive oil on both sides and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Heat a skillet over a medium heat. Add the sliced fennel to the skillet. Cook on one side for 2-3 minutes until tender and charred. Turn the fennel and add the capers to the skillet with the remaining oil. Cook for 2-3 minutes more or until the fennel is tender and charred and the capers are crispy.
Step 3
Remove the fennel and crispy capers from the skillet. Serve with a drizzle of lemon juice and extra olive oil if desired. Serve alongside your preferred Keto Mediterranean-inspired mains.
