Ingredients

    • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
    • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
    • 2 shallots, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
    • 2 celery stalks, finely chopped
    • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
    • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh sage
    • 2 teaspoons fennel seeds, coarsely chopped

  1. Melt butter with the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots and celery, and cook, stirring often, until soft, about 3 minutes.
