Method

Reserving the tops, cut the fennel into wedges.
Place the butter and a splash of oil in a pan over a low heat, add the fennel and cook for 40 minutes, or until golden and caramelised.
Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4.
Score the fish on each side. Peel and finely chop the garlic, deseed and finely chop the chilli, then rub all over the fish with the lemon zest.
Season with sea salt and black pepper, then slice the lemon into rounds and place 2 to 3 slices inside each fish cavity.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until cooked.
Serve with the fennel, scattered with the reserved tops.
