Instructions

Prep the citrus. Place the citrus on a cutting board and cut off the top and bottom of each. Stand upright and remove the peel from the sides by cutting from top to the bottom, removing as much of the white pith as possible. Turn the peeled citrus on its side and slice into rounds. Halve the rounds if they're large.

Place the frisée on a large platter. Arrange the citrus and fennel over the top of the frisée, then drizzle generously with the vinaigrette. Top with the avocado and pistachios, then drizzle with additional vinaigrette and serve immediately.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Segment Citrus Properly 🍊
Use the supreming technique to remove citrus segments without pith or membrane—cut between the white lines of each segment for a clean, professional presentation and better texture.
Chill Your Ingredients 🧊
Refrigerate the frisée, fennel, and plate beforehand so the salad stays crisp and refreshing, preventing wilting from the citrus juices and dressing.
Add Avocado Last ⏰
Slice and add avocado immediately before serving to prevent browning and oxidation, ensuring a creamy texture and vibrant appearance.
Toast Pistachios Fresh 🥜
Lightly toast your pistachios in a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes just before assembly to intensify their nutty flavor and add a satisfying crunch to the salad.
Balance Your Citrus Vinaigrette 🍋
Use equal parts citrus juice and quality olive oil, then adjust acidity by tasting—this prevents an overly acidic dressing that can wilt the delicate frisée.
