A simple, refreshing, savory-sweet salad. Thinly sliced fennel is tossed with apple, orange, herbs and an orange- Dijon vinaigrette. Would pair beautifully with grilled fish or roasted, herb chicken and a crisp white wine such as a Sancerre.
Ingredients:
1 bulb fennel, thinly sliced
1 medium apple, cut into matchsticks
1 clementine (mandarin orange) - peeled, segmented, and segments cut in half
1/4 cup pitted kalamata olives, sliced
1 cup thinly sliced swiss chard
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
sea salt to taste
1 pinch freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Directions:
1. Toss fennel, apple, clementine segments, kalamata olives, and Swiss chard together in a large bowl.
2. Scatter basil and parsley atop fennel salad.
3. Whisk lemon juice, orange juice, Dijon mustard, celery seed, oregano, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl.
4. Slowly drizzle olive oil into lemon juice mixture while whisking vigorously to combine dressing.
5. Pour dressing over salad; toss to combine.
