Grapefruit And Orange Salad Recipes

GRAPEFRUIT, ORANGE AND AVOCADO SALAD

Steps:

• Peel the oranges and grapefruits. I use a sharp knife and cut the ends off 1st, then cut the skin off with the pith.
• Cut into sections.
• Place the lettuce leaves into a serving bowl/platter.
• Peel and slice the avocados.
• Place the citrus and avocado on top of the lettuce and drizzle with a vinaigrette.

ORANGE AND GRAPEFRUIT SALAD WITH CORIANDER AND BLACK OLIVES

Steps:

• Peel and segment the citrus. Using a paring knife, slice a thin slice off the top and the bottom of the fruit, so that it has a stable base. Then, start to slice off the peel in strips, moving your knife from top to bottom, following the natural curve of the fruit. Repeat, moving around the perimeter of the fruit, until there's no more peel and the flesh is visable.
• To remove the segments, hold the fruit in the palm of your hand and then slice between the membranes toward the center of the fruit to release a pretty little segment of citrus. Repeat for each fruit.
• Arrange the orange and grapefruit segments in a shallow dish. Sprinkle the olives over the fruit. Drizzle the oil over the citrus segments and sprinkle with the coriander, salt and pepper. Serve.

CITRUS SALAD

Steps:

• Chop lettuce. Arrange lettuce on platter and top with pieces of grapefruit and orange.
• *To supreme fresh oranges and/or grapefruits instead, cut off ends then remove skin in strips working all the way around the fruit from top to bottom. Cut along the side of the membrane to remove the sections of the citrus fruit.
• Combine marmalade with 2 splashes of vinegar and stream in extra-virgin olive oil. Pour dressing over the salad and season with salt and pepper. Garnish platter with chopped or snipped chives.
