INSTRUCTIONS
Prep time: 30 minutes
Artichoke hearts. Using a very sharp paring knife, cut away all the leaves
and the choke to get to the heart; discard outer leaves, choke and thistle.
Thinly slice raw hearts and place them in a bowl with orange juice.
Remove outer leaves and top, feathery parts of fennel. Remove onion skin
and cut off both ends of onion. Slice fennel and onions paper thin, and add
to raw hearts. Add orange slices, garlic, tarragon, olive oil and chili
flakes, and season with salt to taste. Allow to stand at room temperature
for 15 minutes. Retoss and serve on leaves of butter lettuce. Top with
Asiago cheese shavings.
