1 large shallot, minced (1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
10 cups loosely packed arugula
1 medium fennel bulb, trimmed, halved lengthwise, cored, very thinly sliced
3 ounces ricotta salata or pecorino Romano, shaved into long strips with vegetable peeler

Steps:

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, young arugula leaves.
  • If you don't have oil-cured black olives, you can use regular black olives. Just be sure to rinse them and pat them dry before using.
  • To segment the oranges, use a sharp knife to cut away the peel and pith. Then, use your fingers to break the oranges into segments.
  • If you don't have ricotta salata, you can use another firm, salty cheese, such as feta or Parmesan.
  • To make the dressing, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, honey, and salt and pepper. You can also add a bit of minced garlic or shallots, if desired.
  • To assemble the salad, simply toss the arugula, olives, oranges, and ricotta salata together in a bowl. Drizzle with the dressing and serve immediately.
