Posted on March 18, 2014

I loved this! Simple, healthy, and very tasty.

Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

4 oranges

16 black olives

1 large mild red onion, finely chopped

juice of 1/2 to 1 lemon

3 tablespoons of argan or extra virgin olive oil

salt

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon paprika

pinch of ground chili pepper

2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley

 

Method

Peel the oranges, removing the pith. Cut them into thick slices and then into quarters with a fine serrated knife. Put them on a flat serving plate with the olives and chopped onions on top.

Make a dressing with a mixture of lemon juice, argan or olive oil, salt, cumin, paprika, and chili pepper and pour over the salad. Sprinkle with the chopped parsley.
