This salad is refreshingly light, sweet and crunchy.  The combination of the oranges and fennel makes for a salad that is a wonderful accompaniment to both grilled fish and chicken.

Ingredients

Scale

FOR SALAD:

  • 2 Large Heads of Fennel, cleaned, cored and sliced thinly ( about 2 cups)
  • 2 Large Orange, rind cut away, sliced and quartered (about 1 cup)
  • 1/2 teaspoon of Fennel Fronds, patted dry and minced

FOR THE DRESSING:

  • 2 teaspoons Olive Oil
  • 3 teaspoons Lime Juice
  • 3 teaspoons Orange Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions

FOR THE DRESSING:

Place all dressing ingredients into a jar and shake or place them in a pyrex measuring cup and whisk together.

FOR THE SALAD:

About 10 minutes before serving, place the sliced fennel into a bowl and pour dressing over.  Toss to combine and chill.  This citrus in the dressing will cook the fennel, softening it.  Just before serving, add the orange pieces, (reserving a few for garnish), and combine. 

Garnish with remaining orange pieces and sprinkle fennel fronds over the top.
