Ingredients

• •4 fillets (6 oz each) salmon
• •2 medium bulbs fennel
• •3 tablespoons olive oil
• •1 lemon
• •2 cloves garlic, minced
• •1 teaspoon dried thyme
• •to taste salt and black pepper
• •1/2 cup dry white wine

Directions

1. 1Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Trim fennel bulbs, cut into wedges, and toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper.
2. 2Spread fennel on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes until beginning to soften.
3. 3Push fennel to the sides, place salmon fillets skin-side down in the center, drizzle with remaining olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, lemon juice, and white wine.
4. 4Season salmon with salt and pepper, then bake for 12-15 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork.
5. 5Serve salmon with caramelized fennel, drizzling pan juices over top and garnishing with fresh lemon wedges.

💡 Fennel should be sliced thinner than salmon is thick; otherwise the fish finishes while the vegetable still has a raw core.
