This dish can help generate a little sunny feeling in the darkest days of winter. It's partly about the color story, with the pretty coral tones of the salmon and the grapefruit set against the pale green avocado. But there's also something beachy and Californian about the creamy cabbage slaw that's inspired by my favorite Baja-style taco stands. The winter might be chilly and damp, but somewhere out there, the sun is shining bright.

Steps:
- Combine the grapefruit juice and shallot in a small bowl; set aside.
- Score the skin side of the salmon and season all over with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium- high heat. Place the salmon skin side down in the skillet. Cook until the skin is browned and crisp, about 5 minutes. Flip the fillets, reduce the heat to medium, and cook until the fish is barely opaque at the center of each fillet, about 4 more minutes. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the grapefruit juice-shallot mixture, yogurt, and remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the grapefruit segments, avocado, and cabbage and toss gently to combine; season with salt and pepper. Top the slaw with cilantro and serve alongside the salmon.
