Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a medium bowl, gently combine the lime slices, tangerine sections, navel orange sections, and grapefruit sections. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime zest, mandarin orange zest, finely diced shallots, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt until well combined. (3 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

Pour the citrus dressing over the fruit mixture and gently toss to coat evenly. Allow the salad to marinate for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (10 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Arrange the torn romaine lettuce on a serving platter or individual plates. Spoon the dressed citrus fruit over the lettuce. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture. (2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of toasted nuts, such as slivered almonds or pistachios.
Feel free to substitute other citrus fruits based on your preference and availability. Blood oranges, Cara Cara oranges, or pomelos would all be delicious additions.
If you prefer a sweeter salad, add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup to the dressing.
For a more substantial salad, add grilled chicken or shrimp.
