GREEN BEANS WITH FENNEL




Source of Recipe


Recipe attached to fennel bulb


List of Ingredients




1 lb. green beans, trimmed and cut into 2-3" lengths
1 fennel bulb, trimmed, halved and thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper



Recipe



In a large saucepan bring salted water to a boil over medium heat. Add the beans and bring to a second boil. Cook until crisp-tender. Remove from heat and transfer the beans to a colander to drain. Rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. Place beans in a large bowl. Add the fennel.
Mix the lemon juice and parsley together. Pour over the beans and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Makes 4 servings.

NOTE: I sometimes add about 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil before tossing. This is good served either warm or chilled.
