In a small saucepan, add the oil, vinegar, honey, 1/2 of the minced garlic, Orange juice and zest. Heat over low heat and whisk until the mixture is warm and garlic cloves are sizzling a bit.

Pour the liquid over the salad and add raw minced garlic and chia seeds toss well to coat. Cover with a piece of plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. It tastes better as it sits! Serve with toasted baguettes spread with coconut oil or whipped feta.
