■ 3 navel oranges, peeled
■ 3 cara cara oranges, peeled
■ 2 avocados, sliced
■ 1 red Fresno chile, thinly sliced
■ 1 small shallot, thinly sliced
■ 1/4 cup torn fresh mint
■ 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Directions
Whisk sesame oil, tamari, sherry vinegar, balsamic vinegar, chile oil and sugar in a small bowl until emulsified, about 20 seconds. Set aside. Cut oranges crosswise into ¼-inch-thick slices. Evenly divide the orange slices and avocado slices among eight salad plates, alternately layering each fruit. Sprinkle salads with chile and shallot slices. Drizzle each with 1 tablespoon of the vinaigrette; sprinkle with mint and cilantro leaves.
To make ahead: Cover and refrigerate vinaigrette for up to 5 days. The oil may solidify, so bring to room temperature and whisk before using.
