Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 cups baby arugula
2 navel oranges
1 bulb fennel, thinly sliced
1/4 red onion (or more), sliced into thin rings
8 leaves fresh basil, cut into thin strips

Steps:

  • Whisk together the mustard and vinegar in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Slowly add the oil in a thin stream, whisking constantly until fully emulsified. If the dressing breaks while you're making it, stop pouring the oil and whisk what you've made so far until it comes together again.
  • Spread the arugula on a large platter. Slice off the top and bottom of each orange. Cut away the peel and outer membranes, then slice the orange cross-wise into wheels. Layer the orange slices over the arugula, followed by the fennel, onion (add more to taste) and basil. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the vinaigrette on top, toss and serve immediately.
