Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 Oranges
- 1 small Red onion
- 0.5 cup Kalamata olives
- 3 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel the oranges, ensuring all the white pith is removed, and slice them into thin rounds. Arrange them on a large plate or serving platter in a single layer.
Peel and slice the red onion into very thin rings. Rinse the slices under cold water to reduce sharpness, then pat them dry with a paper towel.
Scatter the red onion slices and Kalamata olives evenly over the orange slices on the platter.
In a small bowl, whisk together extra-virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Drizzle the dressing generously over the orange, onion, and olive mixture.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the salad as a garnish.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature. Enjoy!
