Refreshing orange salads are popular in the southern Mediterranean and are served alongside stews and grilled meat or fish.
Ingredients
- 1 small-medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 ripe oranges
- 10 black olives
- ½ lemon juice and zest
- 2 tbsp fruity olive oil
- salt and freshly ground black pepper

How to Make It
- Place the onion in a bowl of cold water. Using a sharp knife, remove the peel and pith from the oranges and slice thinly.
- Place the oranges in a shallow serving dish. Drain the onion slices, place on a double layer of paper towels, and pat dry. Arrange the slices on the oranges. Scatter the olives on top.
