Winter Citrus Salad with Honey Dressing

This is an easy two step Salad,  quite delicious and fresh. We altered it, dropping the Grapefruit which is not advisable to eat when you are on statins. I liked this salad and will make again!

Winter Citrus Salad with Honey Dressing
New York Times
 
This citrus salad requires only that you overcome the notion that salads must be green; it’s a novel and wonderful antidote to sorry-looking lettuce. If you’re lucky and can find blood oranges, use them; same with the odd, supremely delicious and usually quite pricey pomelos.
 
INGREDIENTS
Yield:4 servings
 
2       blood oranges or tangerines
1       pink grapefruit
1       navel orange
Salt
½      small red onion or 1 shallot, chopped
3       tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1       tablespoon sherry vinegar
½      teaspoon honey
Lime or lemon juice to taste
¼      teaspoon freshly chopped tarragon or a pinch dried
 
PREPARATION
 
1.              Peel citrus, removing as much pith as possible, and slice into wheels. Remove any pits, layer fruit on a serving dish, sprinkle with salt and garnish with chopped onion.
2.              Whisk together olive oil, vinegar, honey, lime juice and tarragon until well combined; taste, adjust seasoning as needed and drizzle over salad.
