4 medium (1/2 pound each) leeks, halved, cleaned and cut
into 1-inch pieces (4 cups)
1 small (1/2 pound) fennel bulb, cored and cut into think
slices (2 1/2 cups)
1 cup low-sodium vegetable or chicken broth
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1. Preheat oven to 450F. Place leeks, fennel, broth, salt
and pepper in a 11 x 9 pan. Dot top with butter and
cover pan with aluminum foil.
2. Bake 15 minutes. Uncover, stir lightly and bake
uncovered until vegetables are very tender and liquid is
almost all gone, about 20 minutes. Mix in lemon juice
and parsley.
The subtle anise flavor of this side goes well with braised beef
dishes. Atkins - Braised Leeks and Fennel
