Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Season the fish with salt and pepper, the juice of half a lemon and place the leaves from the fennel bulbs in the cavity. Dot with butter and close the cavity. Set aside at room temperature.
- Step 2
Cut the fennel into quarters. Butter a baking dish, add a dash of oil and cover with a piece of foil. Cook the fennel for about 20 minutes, or until browned and tender.
- Step 3
When the fennel is almost done, broil the fish for a few minutes on each side (the length of time will depend upon the thickness of the flesh). Serve on a large heated platter, with the pieces of fennel arranged around the fish.
