Green Salad w/Orange Marmalade Dressing

Serves 12
Kristen BeerlyKristen Beerly

Discovered this during the 2008 holidays. An instant classic.

ingredients

Dressing
  • 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons orange marmalade
  • 3 tablespoons sherry or red wine vinegar
  • 1 medium shallot, minced (about 3 tablespoons)
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme leaves
  • Salt and ground black pepper
Salad
  • 10 ounces (16 cups) greens -- romaine, arugula, mesclun, or a mixture. (I usually use romaine)
  • 8 medium radishes (about 4 ounces), sliced thin
  • 1 cup sliced almonds, toasted (I often use walnuts or pecans)

directions

Dressing

Shake all the ingredients together in a jar with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate for up to 2 days.

Salad

  • 1

    1. An hour before serving, let the dressing sit at room temperature.

    2. Toss the salad greens and radishes together in a large bowl, cover with damp paper towels, and refrigerate until needed.

  • 3

    3. Five minutes before serving, toss the salad with the dressing and sprinkle the nuts over the top.

notes

I usually make the dressing without the shallot and thyme, because I never have them on hand.
