2 navel oranges

1 small garlic clove, chopped fine

2 teaspoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

1 small head frisée (French curly endive)

1 small bunch watercress

3 ounces jícama (about 1/4 small)

With sharp knife cut peel and pith from oranges and cut sections free from membranes. Before discarding membranes squeeze out juice to total 1/4 cup for vinaigrette.
In a small bowl whisk together orange juice, garlic, soy sauce, and vinegar. Add oil in a stream, whisking until emulsified, and season with salt and pepper. Vinaigrette may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
Discard any dark green outer leaves from frisée. Wash and dry inner leaves and tear into bite-size pieces. Discard course stems from watercress and wash and dry remainder. Peel jícama and cut into 2-by 1/8-inch sticks (you should have about 1 cup).
In a large sealable plastic bag combine orange sections, frisée, watercress, and jícama. Salad may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled in plastic bag.
Just before serving, add vinaigrette to plastic bag and shake to combine.
