Ingredients
- 6 tablespoon pomegranate juice
- 3 tablespoon canola oil
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 small clov garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 2 large navel oranges
- 2 Belgian endives
- 1 cup watercress
- 1 avocado
- 12 medium cooked shrimp, (about 8 ounces), optional
- 1 cup pomegranate seeds, (1 large fruit; see Tip)
Cooking Directions
Step 1
To prepare dressing: Whisk dressing ingredients in a small bowl.
Step 2
To prepare salad: Peel oranges with a paring knife, removing the white pith. Quarter and slice the oranges. Wipe endives with a damp cloth (do not soak—they tend to absorb water); cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Wash and dry watercress. Peel and pit avocado; cut into thin slices lengthwise.
Step 3
To assemble salads: Alternate avocado slices and orange sections in a fan shape on each of 4 salad plates. Top with endive, watercress and shrimp, if using. Drizzle with dressing, sprinkle with pomegranate seeds and serve.
