Step 1

Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the sliced fennel on a cookie sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Toss with salt and pepper and roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes.

Place the goat cheese in the freezer for about 10 minutes and take out. Heat a frying pan with a couple tablespoons of olive oil. Slice the goat cheese and dip in egg and breadcrumbs. Fry until golden brown. Set aside.

Step 3

In a salad bowl, toss in the greens with the carrot ribbons and oranges. Reserve some of the carrots and oranges for garnish. Take the roasted fennel and gently toss in. Drizzle a couple teaspoons of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salad and couple cracks of fresh ground pepper. Top with fried goat cheese and serve
