  5. Place the asparagus and fennel into a bowl, season and drizzle with a little olive oil. Add to the BBQ and cook until charred and tender.
  6. Place the seafood on a serving dish and drizzle with a little olive oil and lemon juice to finish. Season to taste and add freshly cooked chicken if you wish.
