Equipment

  • Large serving plate or platter
  • Small jar or jug for dressing
  • Sharp knife
  • cutting board

Ingredients
  

For the salad

  • 1 head radicchio leaves separated and rinsed
  • 2–3 oranges thinly sliced
  • 2 kiwi fruit peeled and sliced

For the orange red wine vinaigrette

  • Zest of 1 orange
  • Juice of 1 orange
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Optional topping

  • Berry granola or homemade granola lightly crushed

Instructions 

  • Separate the radicchio leaves and rinse them well. Remove the thick white stems if preferred for a less bitter salad.
  • Shake or pat the leaves dry and arrange them on a serving plate or platter.
  • Wash the oranges well and thinly slice them into rounds. Arrange the orange slices over the radicchio leaves.
  • Peel and thinly slice the kiwi fruit, then scatter the slices over the salad.
  • To make the vinaigrette, add the orange zest and orange juice to a small jar or jug.
  • Add the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper.
  • Shake or whisk well until combined.
  • Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad just before serving.
  • Finish with flaky sea salt and optional crushed granola for extra crunch and sweetness.

Notes

  • Use fresh, seasonal oranges for the best flavor.
  • Organic oranges work best if leaving some peel on the slices.
  • Thinly sliced oranges create the prettiest presentation.
  • Maldon sea salt works beautifully in this salad and helps balance the bitterness of the radicchio.
  • Serve immediately after dressing to keep the salad crisp and fresh.

Serving Suggestions

Serve as a light lunch, fresh side salad, or part of an Italian-inspired meal spread.

Storage

Best served fresh. Store leftover dressing separately in the fridge for up to 3 days.
