Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole Oranges
- 1 whole Red onion
- 100 grams Black olives
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 3 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Sea salt
Instructions
Peel the oranges using a sharp knife, removing all the bitter white pith. Slice the oranges into thin, round slices and arrange them neatly on a serving platter.
Peel the red onion and slice it very thinly into rings. Scatter the onion rings evenly over the orange slices.
Drain the black olives and slice them in halves or leave them whole, depending on your preference. Add the olives to the platter, distributing them evenly.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the salad for a pop of color and freshness.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, lemon juice, ground black pepper, and sea salt to create a simple vinaigrette.
Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad, making sure to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Let the salad sit for 5-10 minutes at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.
Serve the salad as a refreshing side dish or light appetizer. It pairs beautifully with crusty bread or grilled meat.
