INGREDIENTS 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 (11-ounce) can refrigerated breadstick dough
Olive-oil flavored vegetable cooking sprayPreheat oven to 350 degrees.
Heat oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add fennel seeds, pepper, and garlic; sauté 1 minute. Remove from heat, and set aside.
Unroll breadstick dough (do not separate into breadsticks). Beginning at the center of dough, spread fennel seed mixture over half of short end of dough, pressing gently. Fold other half of dough over fennel seed mixture, pinching ends together to seal.
Cut dough along perforations to form 8 breadsticks. Twist each folded breadstick, and place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
Bake breadsticks at 350 degrees for 18 minutes or until breadsticks are golden.
