Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4th small red onion, very thinly sliced
4 blood oranges (or regular oranges), peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thick
1 large or 2 small-to-medium ripe avocados, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (about 1 medium lime)
Flaky sea salt or kosher salt
1 teaspoon nigella seed, black sesame seeds* or pepitas (green pumpkin seeds)
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Fill a medium-sized bowl with ice and water, and soak the onions for 10 to 20 minutes. This step makes the onions crisp and softens their flavor intensity.
  • Meanwhile, on a large serving plate, layer the orange and avocado slices.
  • Drain the onion well and tuck pieces in between and on top of the orange and avocado. Drizzle the salad with the lime juice and sprinkle generously with salt.
  • Sprinkle the seeds and cilantro on top, then drizzle the olive oil all over it. Serve promptly.

ORANGE AND RED ONION SALAD



Orange and Red Onion Salad image

It's true-orange and onion really does sound like an unusual combination. But when my husband tasted Orange and Red Onion Salad for the first time, he told me, "This one's worth at least three kisses!" I serve this salad with chicken...it likely would go well with fish, too. Up until a short time ago, we lived in the San Joaquin Valley, where almonds, peaches and other crops thrive. Now-along with our 17-year-old son and 12-year-old daughter-we're settling into our new home in the foothills and getting used to seeing row crops and dairy cows instead.
