Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
For the Salad:
-
4 cups fresh arugula
-
2 oranges, peeled and sliced
-
1 large grapefruit, peeled and sliced
-
2 ripe avocados, sliced into wedges
-
Flaky sea salt, to taste
-
Freshly ground black pepper (optional)
For the Warm Herb Drizzle:
-
¼ cup HASSY High Heat Avocado Oil
-
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
-
3 sprigs fresh thyme
-
2 strips fresh lemon peel
-
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
1. Prepare the salad. Arrange the fresh arugula on a large serving platter. Layer the orange and grapefruit slices over the greens, then gently add the avocado wedges.
2. Make the warm herb drizzle. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine HASSY Avocado Oil, rosemary, thyme, and lemon peel. Warm gently for 2–3 minutes, until the herbs release their aroma. Avoid overheating or browning the herbs.
3. Add the lemon. Remove the saucepan from the heat and discard the herb sprigs and lemon peel. Carefully stir in the fresh lemon juice.
4. Bring it all together. Drizzle the warm, fragrant oil over the citrus, avocado, and arugula.
5. Finish and serve. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and a few fresh rosemary leaves. Serve immediately.
HASSY's Hosting Tip
Prepare your citrus and herb-infused oil ahead of time. Keep the prepared ingredients refrigerated, then gently rewarm the oil and slice the avocado just before serving.
The secret to this salad is the contrast between the fresh citrus, creamy avocado, and warm, aromatic herb drizzle.
Because nobody invited a dry, boring salad to Thanksgiving!
Made with HASSY 100% Pure, Single-Origin Avocado Oil from Mexico.
