ALMOND ORANGE CRUSTED CHICKEN WITH FENNEL ARUGULA SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 F degrees. Ten minutes before you are ready to cook the chicken, put a baking sheet in the oven to pre-heat.
• Finely zest the orange and set the zest aside. Cut the top and bottom off of the orange, sit the orange on one end on a cutting board and cut the entire peel and pith off by cutting downward following the shape of the fruit. Then, using a paring knife, remove each section of orange from the membrane. Set the orange sections aside.
• In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg white until slightly frothy. In a large shallow bowl or on a plate, combine the orange zest, almonds, and 1/4 teaspoon each of the salt and pepper. Put the flour on a large plate.
• Remove the pre-heated baking sheet from the oven and spray with cooking spray.
• Dip the chicken breasts, one at a time, first into the flour, shaking off any excess, then into the egg white, and then coat with the almond mixture and place on the baking sheet. Spray the top of the chicken with cooking spray. Bake for 6 minutes, turn and bake for 6 minutes more, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden.
• While the chicken is cooking, combine the fennel, arugula and orange sections in a large bowl. In a small bowl whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat.
• To serve, place one large or two small chicken cutlets on each plate and top with a mound of the salad.

ARUGULA AND FENNEL SALAD

Steps:

• Trim the fennel bulb and reserve the fronds. Cut the bulb in half and remove the tough inner core. Using a sharp knife or a mandolin cut the fennel into very thin slices and put them into a large bowl. Cut the onion into very thin slices and add them to the bowl. Add the arugula to the bowl and give it a good toss. Pour in the olive oil and lemon juice, season it with salt and pepper, and toss it again to coat all the ingredients; put the salad onto a large platter. Using a vegetable peeler, shave thin pieces of the Parmigiano-Reggiano and scatter them over the salad. Garnish with the reserved fennel fronds.

ORANGE FENNEL SALAD

Steps:

• Cut the fronds from the fennel bulbs and reserve some of the feathery leaves for later. Cut each fennel bulb in half and remove the cores with a sharp knife.
• Fit a food processor with the thinnest slicing blade. Cut the fennel bulbs into wedges and place horizontally into the feed tube. Process in batches. Peel each orange, remove the pith with a knife, and slice. Set aside.
• For the dressing: Whisk together the oil, juice, 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper in a small bowl. Place the fennel slices, oranges slices and arugula in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss together. Sprinkle with salt and add some fennel fronds for decoration.

HELEN VITALE'S ORANGE AND FENNEL SALAD

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.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH ORANGES AND CARAMELIZED FENNEL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Combine fennel wedges, thyme, and 4 tablespoons oil in large bowl; toss to coat. Arrange fennel, cut side down, on large rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until fennel is tender and brown, turning once, about 40 minutes. Discard thyme sprigs. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
• Whisk vinegar, mustard, and 2 tablespoons oil in large bowl. Season dressing with salt and pepper. Add fennel, orange slices, and arugula. Toss to coat. Transfer salad to large shallow bowl.
• What to drink:
• To accompany the spicy, citrusy salad, pour a crisp white with mineral notes. The Kupelwieser 2008 Pinot Grigio Alto Adige ($15) would be perfect.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH FENNEL, ORANGES AND PECORINO ROMANO

Steps:

• Prepare fennel - using only the white bulb, shave thin slices on a mandolin or with a very sharp knife. Set aside.
• Prepare pecorino-romano cheese - finely grated cheese does NOT have enough flavor "punch", so buy your cheese in bulk and create larger pieces, such as match-stick size or larger shavings.
• On 4 cold plates, arrange arugula. Top with orange sections, shaved fennel and pieces of pecorino-romano cheese.
• Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar or balsamic "glaze" (see note below). Finish with a grinding of fresh black pepper and serve.
• NOTE: You can find balsamic "glaze" in gourmet or Italian stores. It is a thicker, more concentrated balsamic vinegar.
