Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Trim the fennel bulbs by removing the stalks and fronds. Cut the bulbs in half lengthwise, then into 1/2-inch thick slices.
Place the fennel slices in a large mixing bowl. Add olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss well to evenly coat the fennel with the oil and seasonings.
Spread the seasoned fennel slices in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until the fennel is tender and caramelized at the edges, stirring halfway through the cooking time.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve the roasted fennel warm as a delightful low-carb side dish.
