Dear Bloggers,Let me give you the low-down. Recently, I have cooked 2 meals over the four days that I have been here. Tonight I believe I will be making another awesome fried chicken dish which I am pumped about. So, on Thursday night I decided to make some fennel zucchini pasta al forno. Quite easy and so delicious. I began by marinating some ground beef in some garlic, olive oil, 1 head of chopped fennel, thyme, and basil for 3 hours. I cut up 1 yellow and green zucchini into 1/8" rounds. I then let those marinate in olive oil, salt, and pepper for an equal amount of time. After I sauteed the ground beef/fennel mixture in a pan until fully cooked then I formed a roux with flour, cream, and a touch of butter. I then added some cooked bow tie pasta. Off of the heat, I added in the rounded zucchini and put it in an 8x12 dish, added some bread crumbs and butter to the top and cooked it on 350 for 30 minutes then broiled it for 3 minutes for a golden finish. Virtually, you could've added any vegetables to this dish and you also could've taken out the ground beef but the fennel is quite an added bonus of flavor. Hopefully you'll try this awesome dish. Until tomorrow, happy cooking and stay healthy!
