Ingredients

  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 2 Tbsp reduced-fat cream cheese
  • 2 tsp finely grated lemon zest
  • 1/2 tsp fennel seeds
  • 1/2 small fennel, finely chopped
  • 4 oz smoked salmon
  • Fennel fronds, chopped (for garnish)

Preparation

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 425°.

To make the crisps, mix the Parmesan with the flour and pepper to taste. Spoon teaspoonful-size rounds onto the prepared baking pan and flatten slightly with the back of a spoon.

Bake the rounds for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the round is crisp. With a spatula, transfer each crisp to a sheet of wax paper.

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese with the lemon zest.

Spoon a small amount of the cream cheese mixture on top of each crisp. Sprinkle with a few fennel seeds, the chopped fennel and pieces of salmon. Garnish with fennel fronds, if desired.
