Parsley is one of the most reliable additions to a dish, but what about making it take center stage? This salad can be the perfect light start to heavier dishes served in colder months, like shepherd’s pie or baked chicken casserole, bringing a pop to winter meals. An ingredient as strong and sweet as an orange is a perfect companion for the parsley and the sharp crunch of endive. <br /> <br />NOTE <br />Blood and cara cara oranges are usually available only in winter, so feel free to change the variety if you find they aren’t available. Make sure to check the quality of the oranges you are purchasing though: mealy, off-season citrus will make the entire dish lose its character. You want fragrant oranges that aren’t too firm. You can also substitute other lettuces for endive, but choose a sharper variety (like arugula or radicchio) to keep the contrast with the sweetness of the orange. Lastly, if you can’t find sherry vinegar, you can use red wine vinegar instead. <br /> <br />Reprinted with permission from BRING IT! © 2018 by Ali Rosen, Running Press
