Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 425 F.

- Meanwhile, toss the onion wedges with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, keeping the wedges in tact as much as possible.

- Sprinkle the thyme, rosemary and couple pinches of salt and pepper over the veggies and gently mix.
- Nestle the onion wedges and fennel among the veggies in the pan.
