Ingredients

1 bulb fennel trimmed or fronds and tops and quartered lengthwise
1 1/2 pounds ground lamb
2 to 3 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 large navel orange, zested
1/4 red onion, finely chopped, plus 1/4 sliced
Salt and pepper
1 heart romaine lettuce, chopped
1 head radicchio, chopped
1 navel orange, peeled and sectioned or sliced into disks
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

Preheat a grill pan over medium high heat. Toss the quartered fennel in 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Put fennel on grill and grill on all sides, approximately 2 minutes. Remove from grill and cool. Once cooled, thinly slice and reserve.

Combine lamb, rosemary, orange zest, finely chopped red onion, salt and pepper. Make 12 balls and flatten them into 3 inch meat patties. Grill 2 to 3 minutes on each side.

Combine lettuces in a shallow bowl with sliced onion. Add sliced cooled fennel to salad. Scatter the oranges and parsley around the salad. Dress with vinegar, oil, salt and pepper, to your taste. Top portions of salad with 3 mini lamb patties and serve.

Great Salad!

So easy to make, and absolutely delicious. Took me more than 30min to make, but like most women, was taking care of children... while cooking. Definitely a keeper!Read more

Pretty good
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I occasionally cook for a group of friends but they didn't think that this recipe sounded good (lamb scares them =:>) So I... cut the recipe in fourth and made a single full-size burger without the salad just for myself. I put it on some homemade bread and it was quite tasty. I'm definately making it for my friends.Read more

Sooooo Delish!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Well, I wasn't brave enough to use lamb, so I substituted pork. These are so good with the fennel salad. I had them for... lunch the next day as well - even better!!Read more
