3 navel oranges
3 blood oranges
1 medium red onion -- sliced into
paper-thin rings
8 large fresh basil leaves -- shredded
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper

Peel the oranges, and remove all the pith. Slice into 1/4-inch-thick
rounds. Arrange the slices on a large, shallow platter. Lay the onion
