Great for Entertaining..... I also did some tampering some inspired by previous comments so thank you. Adding onion mushroom and roasted garlic from whole foods. Minced garlic may have done the trick but I did not feel like peeling garlic today hahaha! I also threw some oregano and some cayenne pepper in there. I used mozzarella cheese. Overcooked them on accident but worked well cause my husband loved it overcooked and crunchy!! He said we need to entertain with these! I think a glass of red wine would be perfect with this. Might try adding tomatoes next time.
It was a hit! Very tasty and looked great like gourmet pizza! I brought some in to the office for lunch the next day and all the girls wanted the recipe one of them has made it already. When I was making it I noticed the recipe doesn't call for salt. I wasn't comfortable with that so I did add a little to the veggies. I also added to the vegetables some small sliced portabella mushrooms and one small thinly sliced onion. I love fennel with chicken and will look for more recipes. Thanks so much for this recipe.

Can't really rate yet as I haven't tried it. It looks amazing. Do you think you could use flour totillas? And would one preheat it before layering the ingredients? I guess I could just try it. Can't get decent pita down here in Florida. Guess not enough Lebanese down here. Have to get it from friends in MA.
I did some fairly substantial tinkering to this recipe (because like some other commenters I thought it sounded quite bland). The end result is Grilled Asian Fennel and Chicken Flatbread which you can read about on my Eating the Rainbow food blog at: http://superfoodsyear.blogspot.com/2010/08/tinkering-makes-for-tasty.html Enjoy!
great tasting and you can make it ahead of time and refrigerate then bake later. i add some hot garlic sauce to add some depth and use a little dice garlic (who doesn't love garlic?)
super yummy and super easy. My seven year old loves it minus the peppers my 2 year old as-is and my picky eater with both the fennel and the peppers removed (but his tastes don't account for much!!). My husband and I find it quite enjoyable as well. Works well for a meal snack or as an appetizer at parties. Winning recipe in our house!
