My Italian friend, Daniela Musio, loves to cook. So, when she mentioned that her family likes her special easy summer dish, I asked her about it. She said that she cooks chicken with fresh fennel, fragrant rosemary, garlic and wine. It’s all made in one pot.
Fresh, crisp fennel has a mild anise flavor and when cooked it adds a slight crunch to the dish. The best way to slice the fennel is to remove the fennel stems and cut the bulb in half straight through the root.
