Orange, Avocado & Mache Salad
Ingredients
-
4 medium navel or Valencia oranges
-
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
-
1 tablespoon minced red onion
-
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
-
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
-
1 medium ripe avocado, thinly sliced
-
5 ounces mache (about 6 loosely packed cups)
Directions
1.
Finely grate 1 teaspoon zest from one of the oranges and put in a large bowl. Using a sharp knife, trim off the peel and white pith from the oranges and cut crosswise 1/4 inch thick.
2.
Squeeze two or three orange slices over a small bowl to yield 1 tablespoon juice; add the juice to the zest along with the olive oil, onion, and vinegar. Whisk to blend and season to taste with salt and pepper. Arrange the remaining orange slices and the avocado slices to one side of 6 salad plates.
3.
Toss the mache with the dressing, season to taste with salt and pepper, and mound next to the oranges and avocados.
