6–8 servings

 

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pink grapefruit
  • 3 oranges
  • 3 limes
  • 6 lemons
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup fresh mint, thinly sliced
  • salt and pepper
  • juice of 1 orange
  • 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

 

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Peel all the citrus fruit by first cutting off the tops and bottoms.
  2. Place the fruit on the cutting board and slice off the peel in strips, removing the white pith.
  3. Go all the way around. Cupping the fruit in one hand and using a very sharp paring knife, cut out the segments lengthwise to release them between the membranes.
  4. Place all the fruit on a nice serving platter.
  5. Add the onion slices. Scatter the parsley and mint. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Mix the orange juice and olive oil and drizzle on top of the citrus fruit.
  7. Serve immediately.
