Moroccan orange–mint leaf salad

This simple, yet elegant salad recipe uses just seven ingredients and is ready in five minutes. We’ve called for oranges, but you could use blood oranges, tangerines, clementines, or grapefruit. The cayenne adds a tiny hit of heat to the sweet oranges and cooling mint, but omit it if you would prefer a milder dish. For the mint, there are two types: peppermint or spearmint. Peppermint has a stronger, more pungent flavor than spearmint, which is why it’s often used in in baking and sweet dishes, while spearmint is often used in cooking and savory applications. Serve this refreshing salad on a bed of your favorite salad greens.
