Instead of peeling and separating the fruit into segments, slice off the peel and then cut the fruit into rings. Layer in the sliced onions, lightly drizzle on some oil and vinegar, sprinkle with salt and pepper—and that's it! The salad is also great with a
chunky tuna sandwich or your
favorite chicken salad sandwich. You can add more greens and then crumble in an ounce of goat or blue cheese per serving to enjoy a light meal.
step 1To cut off the orange peel, first slice off the top and bottom of the orange to see where the peel ends and the orange begins. Then, with the orange sitting flat on your cutting board, cut off the rind from top to bottom, making sure to remove all the white part (the pith, which can be bitter). Cut the orange into 1/4-inch slices and place into a large bowl.
step 2Add the thinly sliced red onion and scallions to the oranges. Drizzle olive oil and vinegar over the oranges and onions. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top. Let sit 5 minutes.
step 3Toss lightly with spoons and serve.
