Best Orange Onion And Rosemary Salad Recipes

ORANGE AND RED ONION SALAD

Steps:

• In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Saute the almonds until golden brown. Remove almonds to paper towels to drain. Combine next five ingredients. Beat in oil. Combine lettuce, orange sections, onion slices and almonds. Toss with dressing. Serve immediately.

FENNEL AND ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Peel the oranges over a bowl with a knife, removing the peel and white membrane, then roughly chop the whole orange on a cutting board; strain and reserve the juice. Put the orange pieces in a bowl with the fennel and scallions.
• Whisk the reserved juice with the cumin, salt, and oil. Toss with the salad; taste and adjust the seasoning and garnish with parsley or basil.
• In step 2, add the juice of a lemon. Omit the scallions and cumin and add 1/4 cup or more good-quality black olives, pitted and chopped, and 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or a pinch of dried thyme). Garnish with parsley leaves.
• Starting with the preceding variation, substitute 4 large artichokes or 2 cups canned artichoke hearts, drained and quartered, for the fennel (or use in addition to the fennel). If using fresh artichokes, prepare as directed on page 71 for Carciofi Fritti: Fried Artichoke Hearts (Italy)-cooking them just short of complete tenderness-and proceed as above.
• Starting with the first variation, substitute 1 red onion for the fennel and 1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary leaves for the olives. Trim, peel, and thinly slice the onion and immerse it in salted water to cover for at least 10 minutes (30 is better) before draining, drying, and adding to the salad. Toss the rosemary with the oranges, onion, and dressing.

ORANGE, RED ONION, AND BLACK OLIVE SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, and orange zest in a small bowl until well combined. Add olives set aside for at least one hour.
• To take some of the bite out of the onions drop the slices in boiling water for about 4 minutes. Drain and refresh in ice water, and drain well again. OR my best result is to prepare the dressing, add olives and onions and marinate for at least four hours or overnight.
• Layer oranges and onions on a serving plate. Drizzle layers with olives and dressing. Top with a little sprinkle of salt, a few grindings of fresh pepper, and the rosemary.
• Preparation time does not include marinating time.

ORANGE AND RED ONION SALAD

Steps:

• With a sharp thin-bladed knife, shave off the peel and pith of each orange completely, exposing the flesh of the fruit. Slice the oranges into rounds about 1/3 inch thick (you'll have about 4 cups of slices in all). Handle them gently so they remain intact.
• Peel the onion, and slice it into very thin rounds (about 1 1/2 cups in all).
• Lay out the orange rounds on a serving platter prettily (I pile up all the broken pieces in the center, making a colorful mound). Separate the onion rings, and scatter all over the oranges.
• Sprinkle the salt over the top. Grind lots of coarse pepper over the top. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of your best olive oil all over the top. Shower the parsley over all. And serve!
