CITRUS SALAD WITH PEANUTS AND AVOCADO



Citrus Salad With Peanuts and Avocado image

There's really no need for leafy greens in a big, meaty citrus salad. The first step is to acquire a range of fruit - citrus of different colors, sizes and shapes, with varied levels of acidity and sweetness. Cutting the fruit so you don't lose too much juice is key: Cut the pith and peel with a knife, then slice the fruit horizontally with a sharp knife that doesn't crush and squeeze. A simple dressing of fish sauce, sweetened with a little brown sugar, works well, especially when it's offset with some fatty pieces of avocado and some fresh herbs.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 blood oranges
2 grapefruits
2 tangerines
1 ripe avocado
1/4 cup fish sauce
2 tablespoons packed light-brown sugar
1 tablespoon rice-wine vinegar
1 shallot, minced
1 handful mint leaves
1 handful cilantro leaves
1/2 cup roasted, salted peanuts, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Slice off citrus tips on both sides using a sharp knife to create two flat surfaces. Setting the citrus on one flat surface, slice off the skin and pith, following the shape of the sphere. Once skins are fully removed, slice each fruit horizontally into 1/2-inch-thick rounds. Roughly dice the avocado.
  • Whisk the fish sauce, sugar and vinegar in a large bowl until the sugar dissolves, then stir in the shallot. Transfer the citrus segments, avocado, half the herbs and half the peanuts to the dressing bowl, and gently toss to coat. Tip into a serving plate, and garnish with remaining herbs and peanuts.

Avocado-Citrus Frisee Salad image

A perfect combination of citrus and greens, this is our play on a refreshing and bright salad. Pair with a crisp white wine like 14 Hands Sauvignon Blanc.

Categories     Green Salads

Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 Cara Cara orange
1 grapefruit
1 head frisee lettuce, coarsely chopped
2 avocados, cubed
Sea salt to taste

Steps:

  • Using a sharp knife, carefully slice off the top and bottom of the orange, giving you a stable cutting surface and making it easier to trim the rest of the peel.
  • Trim away the skin and the pith by cutting even downward strokes, slicing the skin away from the flesh and discard. Using a paring knife, carefully cut between the membranes to segment the orange. Cut until you reach the middle of the orange, but not cutting all the way through.
  • Repeat process with the grapefruit segments. Slide a paring knife between the membrane and segment, then pop the segment out.
  • Place frisee lettuce on a platter; arrange segmented citrus and avocados on top. Sprinkle sea salt over the salad.

ROASTED CITRUS AND AVOCADO SALAD

Categories     Salad     Leafy Green     Low Carb     Low Fat     Kid-Friendly     Quick & Easy     Low Cal     High Fiber     Lemon     Orange     Avocado     Healthy     Low Cholesterol     Bon Appétit     Small Plates

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 blood or Valencia orange, sliced 1/8" thick, seeds removed
1 Meyer or regular lemon, sliced 1/8" thick, seeds removed
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons fresh Meyer or regular lemon juice
1 bunch watercress or arugula, thick stems trimmed
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
1 avocado, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°. Toss orange and lemon slices with 1 tablespoon oil on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Roast citrus, tossing occasionally, until lightly charred in spots and starting to caramelize, 10-15 minutes. This makes the citrus flavor more complex. Let cool.
  • Meanwhile, combine onion and lemon juice in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper and let sit 5 minutes (onion will soften a bit and get slightly sweeter and less harsh).
  • Add roasted citrus to bowl with onion along with arugula and mint. Drizzle remaining 3 tablespoons oil over; season with salt and pepper and toss everything to combine and coat.
  • Add avocado and very gently toss until lightly dressed (you don't want to crush the avocado).

Tips:

  • Use ripe avocados for the best flavor and texture.
  • Choose a variety of citrus fruits to add a range of flavors to the salad.
  • Frisée lettuce adds a slightly bitter flavor to the salad, which helps to balance out the sweetness of the citrus fruits and avocados.
  • Red onion adds a bit of sharpness to the salad.
  • Toasted almonds add a nutty flavor and a crunchy texture.
  • Honey-lime vinaigrette is a simple but flavorful dressing that complements the other ingredients in the salad.

Conclusion:

This avocado-citrus-frisee salad is a refreshing and flavorful dish that's perfect for a light lunch or dinner. The combination of creamy avocados, tangy citrus fruits, and slightly bitter frisée lettuce is sure to please everyone at the table.
