Worthy of a Special Occasion

Blood oranges add vibrant red color, so use them if you can find them. Pit the olives by crushing with the blade of a chef's knife.

Yield: 8 servings (serving size: about 1 1/4 cups)

Ingredients

  • 2  tablespoons  fresh lemon juice
  • 1 1/2  teaspoons  extravirgin olive oil
  • 1/2  teaspoon  salt
  • 1/8  teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
  • 8  cups  trimmed arugula (about 8 ounces)
  • 2  cups  thinly sliced fennel bulb
  • 3/4  cup  vertically sliced red onion
  • 12  sliced pitted kalamata olives
  • 2  cups  coarsely chopped orange sections (about 2 pounds)

Preparation

Combine first 4 ingredients. Combine arugula, fennel, onion, and olives in a large bowl. Drizzle lemon mixture over arugula mixture; toss gently to coat. Top with orange sections.
