Servings: 4 servings
Calories: 140kcal
Ingredients
- 1 large fennel bulb thinly sliced
- 1/2 orange segmented (optional; can omit to reduce carbs)
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp orange zest
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, orange zest, salt, and pepper.
- Arrange the thinly sliced fennel on a plate. Add orange segments sparingly if desired.
- Drizzle the dressing over the fennel.
- Garnish with fennel fronds, if desired, and serve immediately.
Notes
Chef's Tip: Slice the fennel paper-thin with a mandoline if you have one - thickness makes a real difference in this salad's texture. Keto Swap: full orange segments are replaced with a light scattering of segments, or omit entirely - orange adds carbs, so use it sparingly if you're tracking closely.
