Orange and Avocado Chicken Salad
4 oranges (about 1/2 lb each)
3 firm-ripe avocados (about 1/2 lb each)
1/2 Cup orange juice
6 Tbsp lime juice
1 Tbsp chopped fresh dill or 1 tsp dried dill weed
1/2 tsp sugar
Salt to taste
2 Cups diced or sliced skinned cooked chicken or turkey breast (smoked is good too)
About 1/2 Cup very thinly sliced red onion
With a very sharp knife, cut peel and white membrane from oranges. Thinly slice oranges crosswise. Peel and pit 2 avocados. Dice avocado and mix with 3 Tbsp orange juice, 2 Tbsp lime juice, dill, sugar, and salt to taste. Mound chunked avocado equally on plates. Top equally with chicken. Peel and pit remaining avocado and thinly slice lengthwise. Separate onion slices into rings. Mix remaining orange juice and lime juice. Arrange orange slices, avocado slices, and onion rings equally on plates, then moisten with orange-lime juice mixture. Add salt to taste. Makes 4 servings.
If you like, you can garnish this with dill sprigs and minced fresh jalapeno chili peppers.
