Ingredients
- 5 Seedless oranges (can be navel, blood oranges or combination)
- Olive oil
- Sea salt, coarsely ground
- Black pepper, coarsely cracked (See note)
Instructions
- Peel whole oranges. (see notes for tips)
- Slice oranges about ¼ inch thick.
- Add enough olive oil to coat the slices lightly.

Notes
Peeling whole oranges: Cut around the circumference of the orange peel just to the orange. Then run your finger around the cut on one half of the orange and peel the skin off. Repeat for the other half of the orange. (Here is a video on peeling an orange.)
If your pepper grinder does not produce a coarse grind, place whole peppercorns in a mortar and crush with a pestle.
