BALSAMIC ROASTED FENNEL AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F or 218 degrees C
• Remove the top stems of the fennel bulb and reserve the wispy leaves (frang) for garnish. (The top stems of the fennel bulb are delicious in soup stocks)

• Next, peel and chop carrots into long matchsticks.
• Remove the outer skin of the Cipollini onions.
• In a small bowl, combine white balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil, Sicilian Spice Mix or Italian seasoning, garlic powder and salt and pepper to taste.
• Place your sliced fennel, matchstick carrots and peeled Cipollini onion in a bowl. Pour over your prepared balsamic vinaigrette and toss.
• Pour your prepared fennel, carrot and onion mixture on a lined baking sheet. We always spray a little oil on the bottom of the sheet pan to prevent sticking.
• Bake for 20 minutes and gently turn the carrots, fennel and onions over so they brown on both sides. Roast for another 20 - 25 minutes or until fork tender. Garnish with fennel frangs or otherwise known as the wispy leaves.
