How to Make Fennel Mushroom Stir Fry
- Cut the fennel bulb in half lengthwise and thinly slice. Coarsely chop the fennel stalks, reserving the feathery fronds for garnish. Trim away the hard bottom core. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat for 30 seconds.
- Add 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir-fry for 1 minute until softened.
- Add 1 bell pepper (any color), thinly sliced, and the sliced fennel. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are slightly charred around the edges. Add 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, or your favorite) and stir-fry until the mushrooms are soft and slightly browned (about 5-7 minutes).
- Stir in 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with reserved fennel fronds and serve immediately over rice or quinoa (optional).
