MARINADE

In a bowl, combine the marinade ingredients and mix until smooth. Add the hearts of palm and toss to combine. If using fresh hearts of palm, marinate for up to 4 hours, and for canned hearts of palm, marinate for 1 hour. Be sure that they are submerged under the marinade.

Drain the hearts of palm, reserving the marinade. In a large bowl, toss the greens with enough marinade to coat, and arrange on salad plates. Top with the hearts of palm, drizzle with more marinade, and sprinkle with the chives and red onion.
