Arugula Salad With Oranges And Caramelized Fennel Recipes

Steps:

• Remove the heavy stems from the arugula and place the leaves in a salad bowl. Add the fennel and orange segments and toss together.
• Beat the orange juice and mustard together. Beat in the oil and pour the dressing over the salad. Season with pepper and toss.

Steps:

• Whisk together the honey, lemon juice, salt, and pepper; slowly add the olive oil while continuing to whisk.
• Place the arugula in the bottom of a salad bowl; scatter the orange segments, fennel slices, and olives over the arugula; drizzle the dressing over the salad to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Combine fennel wedges, thyme, and 4 tablespoons oil in large bowl; toss to coat. Arrange fennel, cut side down, on large rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until fennel is tender and brown, turning once, about 40 minutes. Discard thyme sprigs. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
• Whisk vinegar, mustard, and 2 tablespoons oil in large bowl. Season dressing with salt and pepper. Add fennel, orange slices, and arugula. Toss to coat. Transfer salad to large shallow bowl.
• What to drink:
• To accompany the spicy, citrusy salad, pour a crisp white with mineral notes. The Kupelwieser 2008 Pinot Grigio Alto Adige ($15) would be perfect.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Toss fennel, endives, rosemary, 2 tablespoons oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Spread mixture in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast, tossing occasionally, until fennel and endives are well browned, about 35 minutes. Discard rosemary.
• Transfer fennel mixture to a large serving bowl. Add vinegar, mustard, remaining tablespoon oil, the figs, and orange segments. Toss well to combine. Let cool to room temperature.
• Just before serving, toss fennel mixture with the arugula. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
