- Cut peel and all white membrane from oranges. Coarsely chop one of the oranges and set aside. Thinly slice remaining 3 or possibly 4 oranges crosswise. Arrange lettuce leaves in a wide, shallow bowl or possibly on a rimmed platter. Top with orange slices; cover and set aside.
- In a small bowl, stir together minced orange, orange peel, orange juice, 2 Tbsp. of the minced basil (or possibly 2 tsp. of the dry basil), vinegar, honey, mustard, garlic, cumin, and red pepper flakes. Beat till blended; set aside.
- In a 1 1/2- to 2-qt (1.4- to 1.9-liter) pan, bring broth to a boil over medium-high heat. Sort through lentils, discarding any debris; rinse, drain, and add in to pan along with remaining 1 Tbsp. minced basil (or possibly 1 tsp. dry basil). Reduce heat, cover, and simmer till lentils are tender to bite (about 25 min).
- Meanwhile, in a 5- to 6-qt (5- to 6-liter) pan, bring about 3 qts (2.8 liters) water to a boil over medium-high heat; stir in pasta and cook till just till tender to bite, 8 to 10 min. (Or possibly cook pasta according to package directions.)
- Drain pasta well; if necessary, drain lentils well. Transfer pasta and lentils to a large bowl. Add in orange dressing and mix gently but thoroughly. Spoon pasta over orange slices. Garnish with basil sprigs.
- Description: "Refreshing oranges lend flavor and color to this combination of tender lentils and fanciful pasta shapes. To complete the presentation, serve the dish atop a bed of butter lettuce leaves and orange slices."tml"
