Roasted Fennel, Crispy Garlic & Shallots on Angel Hair

Grilling Recipes

We Were Such Stubborn Eaters

Growing up, my extended family had a lot of dinners together, and I remember how hard it was for my parents, aunts and uncles to find recipes that please everyone. One night, my grandmother proudly announced her dish as, “Roasted Fennel, Crispy Garlic and Shallots on Angel Hair!” Immediately, my baby cousin started bawling and screamed, “Why would you cut off an angel’s hair!?” Just when grandma thought she had made everyone happy…

I swear though, this recipe just may be straight from heaven. Thanks to a lighter Parmesan cheese, this dish hits the spot without making you feel so full that you can’t move.
