Fennel and Citrus Salad with Olives and Parmesan

Filed under: Delicious Bite, Tagged as: ,

Serves 4-6

2 fennel bulbs

1½ Meyer lemons, zested and juiced

½ cup premium extra virgin olive oil plus more to taste

Salt to taste

3 tangerines, skin and pith sliced off, and sliced into ¼ inch thick wheels

2 blood oranges, segmented

2 ruby grapefruit segmented

½ cup chopped mixed herb (equal parts parsley, tarragon, chervil, and chive)

½ cup firm green olives, pitted and halved

½ cup toasted hazelnuts

4 ounces shaved Parmesan cheese

 

Trim the fennel of stems and greenery.

Using a mandoline, shave the fennel bulbs paper thin into a bowl. (Or cut the bulbs lengthwise and lay the halves cut-side down on a cutting board: slice crosswise as thinly as possible.)

Add the juice of the Meyer lemon, zest, and ½ cup extra virgin olive oil and sear to combine.

Season to taste with salt.

Set aside to marinate.

In a second bowl, combine the citrus fruits and herbs.

On a platter, lay out the marinated fennel, and top with the citrus fruit, olives and hazelnuts.

Drizzle with more olive oil and garnish with shavings of Parmesan cheese.
