Served room temperature or chilled, this salad - combining tangy oranges, sweet and crunchy fennel and zesty marinated pork - is delightful for a warm summer evening.

Makes 2 servings, about 2 cups each

ACTIVE TIME: 15 minutes

TOTAL TIME: 30 minutes (not including pork marinating & grilling)

EASE OF PREPARATION: Easy

1 large orange
Chipotle-Marinated Pork Tenderloin, grilled (recipe follows), thinly sliced and cut into strips
1 small head fennel (about 8 ounces), trimmed, cored and sliced paper-thin
2 tablespoons finely diced red onion
1 tablespoon walnut or canola oil
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons pepitas (pumpkin seeds), toasted (see Ingredient Note)

With a sharp knife, remove the peel and skin from the orange. Working over a large bowl to catch the juice, cut the segments from their surrounding membranes. (Discard membranes, pith and skin.) Add pork, fennel, onion, oil, vinegar, salt and pepper to the bowl; toss to combine. Sprinkle with pepitas.

MAKE AHEAD TIP: Cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Sprinkle with pepitas just before serving.
