1 tsp finely grated orange zest
1 small seedless orange, segmented (plus 1 tbsp / 15 ml juice)

Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, orange juice, Dijon, honey, orange zest, a pinch of salt, and several grinds of black pepper until emulsified.
In a large bowl, combine arugula, sliced fennel, and red onion. Drizzle over about two-thirds of the vinaigrette and toss gently to coat.
