Chicken Grapefruit Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Place a baking sheet on the bottom oven rack and preheat to 475 degrees F. Coarsely grind the coriander and fennel seeds in a spice grinder or crush with a heavy skillet. Put the chicken in a large bowl and sprinkle with the spices; season with salt and pepper and toss well.
• Drizzle the baguette slices with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Heat a large skillet over high heat; add 2 teaspoons olive oil. Add the chicken and cook until browned on the bottom, 3 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Carefully arrange the baguette slices on the hot baking sheet. Put 1 chicken thigh on each baguette slice. Roast on the bottom rack until the chicken is cooked through and the baguette is browned and crisp on the bottom, 15 to 17 minutes.
• Meanwhile, peel the grapefruits with a paring knife; cut out the segments and transfer to a bowl. Squeeze in the juices from the membranes and add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Trim and core the fennel; finely chop the fennel bulb and 1/4 cup fronds and add to the bowl along with the parsley. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and toss well.
• Divide the bread and chicken among plates. Spoon the grapefruit-fennel salad over the chicken and top with the cheese.

Steps:

• For the caramelized onions: In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onions, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are deep golden brown, about 20 minutes. Set aside to cool, about 10 minutes.
• For the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, lemon juice and honey. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until blended. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• For the salad: Peel and trim the ends from each grapefruit. Using a paring knife, cut along the membrane on both sides of each segment. Free the segments and add them to a large salad bowl. Add the lettuce, fennel, cucumber, scallions, and thyme.
• Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until all the ingredients are coated. Arrange the caramelized onions on top and serve.

Steps:

• In large bowl, mix dressing ingredients with wire whisk or spoon. Add chicken, grapefruit, cucumber and avocado; gently toss until evenly coated.
• Cover and refrigerate about 1 hour or until chilled. Serve on watercress.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place chicken into a roasting pan, and squeeze the juice from the grapefruit halves all over and inside the chicken. Drizzle chicken with olive oil, and sprinkle with seasoned salt. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven, covered, for 45 minutes; remove foil, and bake until meat is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Prepare the grapefruit. Juice one grapefruit into a liquid measure. On the second grapefruit, slice the bottom and top to level it, then starting at the top where the white pith ends and the pink flesh begins, cut between the 2 layers at an angle from the top to bottom all the way around to remove the skin and expose the flesh, making sure to slice off all the pithy white parts. Holding the grapefruit in one hand, release the wedges by using the knife to slice on either side of each segment.
• Place these wedges in a medium saute pan. Squeeze the remaining flesh and membranes of the grapefruit to release any juice into a bowl. Add the sugar and honey. Whisk to combine, then taste. If needed, add a teaspoon or more brown sugar to take away the tart of the grapefruit. Pour half of the mixture into a saute pan with the grapefruit wedges. Bring to a simmer and cook until liquid is reduced and slightly thickened, about 8 minutes.
• To the remaining half add the oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Whisk to combine and pour into a plastic bag. Add the chicken, seal and toss a bit before resting on the counter for 25 to 30 minutes. Cook's Note: Any longer and the acid in the grapefruit juice will "cook" the chicken in the marinade and ruin it.
• Heat a grill pan to medium high and brush lightly with oil. Remove the chicken from the plastic bag and shake off the excess marinade. Place the smooth-side down on the grill and cook 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook 2 minutes more. Remove to a serving plate and pour the grapefruit sauce over the top.

Steps:

• CHICKEN: Combine chicken, citrus & basil rub, and 1 tsp olive oil in a small bowl. Toss to coat. Heat a grill pan over medium heat for 5 minutes or until hot. Cook chicken 4-6 minutes on each side. Remove chicken and let cool for 10 minutes.
• DRESSING: Zest 1 tsp grapefruit. Juice 1/4 cup grapefruit juice. Whisk zest, juice, mamalade, oil, salt and black pepper in small bowl.
• SALAD: Top the spinach with sliced chicken, grapefruit, radishes, avocado, and onion if desired. Pour dressing over salad; toss gently. Serve immediately.
