Fennel and Orange Salad

Servings 4 Servings

Ingredients
  

  • 4 navel or cara cara oranges
  • 2 small-medium sized fennel bulbs
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • pinch ground black pepper
  • 8 to 10 Castelvetrano olives
  • 8 to 10 green olives, pitted and torn into quarters
  • Urfa or chili flakes, of choice, to taste
  • flaky salt, to taste
  • ¼ cup pomegranate seeds, optional garnish
  • 6 to 8 fresh mint leaves, garnish

Instructions
 

  • Cut the peel and pith from the oranges, making sure to remove all of the outer membrane without losing too much of the flesh and cut into 1/8-inch slices.
  • Cut the green tops and bottom off the fennel. Standing it upright, slice with a mandolin, or as thinly as possible with a knife.
  • In a small bowl, combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper.
  • Arrange the fennel on a serving platter and drizzle enough of the vinaigrette to coat the fennel. Add the orange slices and olives on top of the fennel. Drizzle the remaining vinaigrette all over and season with chili flakes and flaky salt. Garnish with fresh mint leaves. Enjoy!
