　　It's impossible to overstate just how well the ingredients come together in this beautiful salad. The textural contrast of juicy ripe oranges and crisp endives is enhanced by a surprisingly complex vinaigrette containing sweet, spicy, and smoky flavors.

　　2 tablespoons dark amber or Grade B maple syrup

　　2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

　　1 tablespoon Sherry vinegar

　　1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion

　　1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

　　1 teaspoon chopped canned chipotle chile in adobo plus 1 teaspoon adobo sauce

　　1/2 teaspoon salt

　　3 navel oranges

　　4 large Belgian endives, ends trimmed

　　

Step 1

Whisk together orange juice, syrup, oil, vinegar, onion, lemon juice, chipotle with adobo sauce, and salt in a bowl until combined well.
