Fresh Citrus & Seafood Salad image

I get rave reviews for this seafood salad placed on a bed of arugula. Grapefruit and clementines add color and tang to the crab and shrimp. -Linda Hickam, Healdsburg, California

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 medium grapefruit
2 cups lump crabmeat (about 10 ounces), drained
2 bunches green onions, thinly sliced
6 ounces peeled and deveined cooked shrimp (61-70 per pound)
4 clementines, peeled and segmented or 1 cup mandarin oranges
1-1/3 cups canola oil
1/2 cup red wine vinegar

1 teaspoon salt
12 cups fresh arugula
2 medium ripe avocados, chopped
1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted

Steps:

  • Cut a thin slice from the top and bottom of each grapefruit; stand grapefruit upright on a cutting board. With a knife, cut off peel and outer membrane from grapefruit. Working over a large bowl to catch juices, cut along the membrane of each segment to remove fruit., Add crab, onions, shrimp, clementines and grapefruit sections to reserved juices. In a small bowl, whisk oil, vinegar, garlic and salt until blended; pour over seafood mixture and toss to coat. Place arugula in a large shallow bowl. Spoon seafood mixture over arugula.
