Ingredients

Directions

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Slice a very thin layer from the bottom of each fennel bulb using a vegetable peeler or paring knife; leave core in place to hold bulb intact. Remove fennel stalks, reserving fronds. Slice bulbs vertically into 1/4-inch slices. Brush slices with 1 tablespoon olive oil; sprinkle ground black pepper and salt on each side.

Grill fennel slices on the preheated grill until charred, about 5 minutes per side; transfer to a serving platter.

Whisk remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, basil, parsley, lemon juice, lemon zest, freshly ground black pepper, thyme, and reserved fennel fronds together in a bowl.

Sprinkle fennel slices with Parmesan cheese and drizzle lemon mixture on top.
