Notes and Variations

You can cook fennel in a pan instead of boiling it. Just add a drizzle of oil and a bit of hot water or broth.

You can replace the bacon with speck or cooked ham. You can use other cheeses instead of provola, as long as they are soft and can melt during the oven baking.

Cooking times vary based on the size of the fennel wedges. Before removing from the oven, check that they are tender by piercing them with a fork.
