Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly oil a large, shallow baking pan.

  2. Step 2

    Heat olive oil in a skillet. Add onions and saute over medium heat until golden. Add garlic and fennel and saute until the fennel begins to soften. Stir in tomatoes and increase heat to medium-high. Cook tomatoes for about 10 minutes, until there is little or no excess liquid in the pan. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Place shad on the baking sheet, brush with lemon juice and spread tomato mixture over it. Sprinkle with bread crumbs. Place in the oven and bake until the shad is done, about 10 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Remove from oven, sprinkle with ham and minced fennel tops and serve.
