Ingredients
- 1 Oro Blanco grapefruit
- 1 ounce extra-virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- 1 medium fennel bulb, thinly shaved
- 1 bunch watercress (or approximately 2 cups)
- One 4-ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained and cut into ¼-inch strips (about ½ cup)
- 4 ounces Dungeness crabmeat, picked over
Directions
- To segment the grapefruit, cut a thick slice off of both ends. Stand the grapefruit onto a cutting board and, using a sharp knife, cut away the peel of the fruit, making sure not to cut off too much flesh. Hold the grapefruit over a bowl to catch any juices, and carefully cut out the segments away from the membrane. Squeeze any remaining juice from the membrane. Set the grapefruit segments aside.
- In the bowl with the juice, whisk in the olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- In a large bowl, toss the shaved fennel, watercress and the roasted pepper strips with the grapefruit dressing, reserving 1 tablespoon of the dressing.
- In another bowl, toss the crabmeat with the grapefruit segments and the remaining dressing. To serve, place the salad in the center of a plate and top with the crab mixture.
