For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of freshly ground black pepper to the marinade.
Toasted walnuts or pecans make a wonderful crunchy addition to this salad.
If you prefer a less intense onion flavor, soak the diced red onion in cold water for 10 minutes before adding it to the salad. Drain well before using.
This salad can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will continue to develop over time.

    I've made this salad several times now, and it's always a hit. I like to add a sprinkle of goat cheese just before serving for a creamy tang.

  • Juliana Balistreri

    So easy and delicious! I used apple cider vinegar instead of white wine vinegar, and it was still amazing.

  • Clementina Kreiger

    This recipe is fantastic! I made it for a barbecue, and everyone loved it. The marinade is perfectly balanced.
