Here’s a refreshing and easy side dish: fennel orange salad! It pairs juicy orange and the subtle licorice essence of fennel with a citrus vinaigrette.
Ingredients
- 1/2 recipe Citrus Vinaigrette
- 1 fennel bulb
- 1 large shallot
- 2 small oranges: blood orange or Cara Cara
- 2 tablespoons chopped pistachios
- 5 ounces baby mixed greens (about 5 cups)*
Instructions
Step 1
Make the Citrus Vinaigrette.
Step 2
Thinly slice the fennel and the shallot. If desired, save a few fennel fronds (the feathery green parts on top of the stalk) for a garnish.
Step 3
To serve, place the greens on a plate. Top with oranges, fennel, shallot, and chopped pistachios (and fennel fronds if desired). Drizzle with dressing and serve.
