Fennel seeds, minced fennel fronds, and garlic give this dish lots of extra flavor.

For the past two weeks, our CSA has included an option for kale rabe or napini.

If you cannot find it, simply substitute baby kale, broccoli rabe, or broccoli florets.

Stir occasionally, and cook for about 10 minutes.
