Orange, Fennel & Red Onion Salad

Orange, Fennel & Red Onion Salad

This Orange, Fennel & Red Onion Salad is a beautiful salad that is so light and refreshing. It's a popular Sicilian salad. The fennel's licorice-like flavor pairs well with the sweetness of the orange and the acidity of the red onion. It is a good salad to make ahead of time, as the flavors will only improve with time.
