ORANGE, RED ONION, AND BLACK OLIVE SALAD



Orange, Red Onion, and Black Olive Salad image

I love the combination of flavors of the beautiful simple salad. This is a recipe from Mary Englbreit's Home Companion magazine about 5 years ago. It is a great compliment to roasted fowl or pork. Everything can be prepared before hand and put together up to 2 hours before serving and refrigerated. I took this to a work Thanksgiving potluck once and it got a great response. I lost the recipe shortly afterwards only to find it recently. I will be making it again.

Categories     Citrus

Time 20m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
1 cup kalamata olives or 1 cup nicoise olive, pitted
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
5 large navel oranges, peeled & sliced crosswise in 1/4-inch pieces
coarse ground salt & pepper
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary

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



Orange and Red Onion Salad image

In Sicily, citrus fruits (agrumi) are enjoyed as a savory as well as a sweet, usually served between courses or at the end of a meal. A salad-called pirettu-is made from thick-skinned citrons (cedri). The green rind is peeled off, the center pulp is discarded, and the pith is sliced and dressed with salt, pepper, oil, and a pinch of sugar. Since fresh citrons are hard to find in America, here's another citrus salad popular in Sicily, especially in the winter months, when oranges are at their best. Customarily it is made with blood oranges-sanguine or tarocchi-and that's the way I like it best, though any small, juicy oranges will be delicious. Serve this in the Sicilian style, laying the rounds of orange and rings of red onion artfully on a platter with the dressing drizzled over, rather than tossing everything together. It is great as an appetizer, a refreshing end-of-the-meal salad, or an accompaniment to boiled or grilled meats.

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 or more small blood oranges or other oranges
1 medium red onion
1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt or kosher salt, or to taste
Coarsely ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons best-quality extra-virgin olive oil, or to taste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley

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!

Tips for Making Orange, Red Onion, and Black Olive Salad

  • Use a variety of oranges. This salad is a great way to use up different types of oranges, such as navel oranges, blood oranges, and cara cara oranges. Each type of orange has its own unique flavor, so using a variety will give the salad a more complex taste.
  • Choose red onions that are firm and have no bruises. Red onions have a sharper flavor than yellow or white onions, so they're a good choice for this salad. Make sure to slice the onions thinly so that they don't overpower the other ingredients.
  • Use Kalamata olives. Kalamata olives have a slightly salty and briny flavor that complements the sweetness of the oranges and the sharpness of the red onions. If you can't find Kalamata olives, you can use another type of black olive, such as Niçoise olives or Gaeta olives.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time. The dressing for this salad is simple to make, but it's best if you let it sit for at least 30 minutes before using it. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the salad immediately. This salad is best served immediately after it's made. The oranges will start to lose their flavor if they sit in the dressing for too long.

Conclusion

Orange, red onion, and black olive salad is a refreshing and flavorful salad that's perfect for a summer picnic or potluck. It's also a great way to use up leftover oranges. With its bright colors and tangy dressing, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
