Oranges and blood oranges are combined with olives and a simple Mediterranean olive oil and lemon dressing for a perfect appetizer that checks the clean eating box.
Ingredients
- 4 oranges
- 3 blood oranges
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- salt
- 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
- 10 dried black olives
Directions
- Step 1
Slice a little piece off the top and bottom of each orange so you have a stable cutting surface. Trim away all skin and pith with a small sharp knife without taking too much off the fruit. Slice oranges horizontally and arrange on a serving platter.
Step 2
Combine onion, olive oil, lemon juice, and salt in a bowl and pour over the oranges. Grind fresh pepper over the salad and arrange black olives on top.
Cook's Note:
If not using dried olives, make sure you drain off as much brine as possible.
