Prepare the salad
1
Place the orange on a cutting board and cut off the top and bottom. Stand the orange up on the cutting board and remove the peel from the sides by cutting it from top to bottom, all the way around the orange, removing the white pith. Cut along one side of the orange segment, then cut along the other side at a slight angle to remove. Set the orange slices aside for the salad.
2
Squeeze the remaining orange after segmenting and reserve the juice for the citrus vinaigrette dressing (you’ll have about 2 tablespoons).
3
Place the radicchio, fennel, fennel fronds, orange segments and avocado in a large bowl.
4
Pour the desired amount of dressing onto the salad and toss gently to coat. You may not need all of the dressing. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Bitter Balance Strategy 🎯Massage radicchio with a pinch of sea salt 5 minutes before serving to gently reduce bitterness while maintaining its structural integrity and vibrant color.
- Citrus Zest Peak Timing 🍊Add orange zest directly to the vinaigrette just before tossing, not earlier, to preserve its aromatic oils and prevent them from dissipating into the dressing.
- Avocado Freshness Hack 🥑Slice avocado last and immediately toss with fresh lemon juice to prevent oxidation, then gently fold into the salad just before serving to maintain its creamy texture.
- Vinaigrette Emulsion Mastery ✨Whisk Dijon mustard with citrus juices first, then slowly drizzle in extra virgin olive oil while whisking continuously to create a stable, silky emulsion that coats each ingredient evenly.
- Component Pre-Assembly 🔪Prep radicchio, fennel, and oranges up to 4 hours ahead and store separately in airtight containers; assemble only when serving to maintain optimal crunchiness and prevent wilting.
