Instructions

  • Use a sharp knife to cut off both of the ends of the grapefruit.
  • Cut 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) deep into the fruit, or more, to remove the peel, the white membrane beneath and some of the juicy parts.
  • Set aside peels as you go as they will be used for juice.
  • Rest the grapefruit on one of the flat ends.
  • Remove the peel and membrane by slicing down from the top following the curve of the fruit making sure you are cutting on the inside of the white membrane.
  • Rotate and repeat until you have gone all the way around the fruit.
  • Cut the fruits into segments away from the membranes by cutting on either side of the membrane to remove sections.
  • Use the same procedure to prepare the orange segments.
  • Squeeze juice from peels and membranes into a measuring cup.
  • You should have approximately 1/4 cup (60 mL) of fresh juice.
  • Set aside for vinaigrette.
  • Cut the roast chicken into thin slices.
  • Set aside.
  • Heat a dry, medium skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Spread shredded coconut out in skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until coconut is mostly golden brown.
  • Do not walk away as this can burn easily.
  • Add arugula and salad greens to salad bowl.
  • Top with grapefruit, orange segments and chicken.
  • Finish with the toasted coconut sprinkled over.
  • Serve with the citrus tarragon vinaigrette.
  • Make the vinaigrette by combining the fruit juices, olive oil, rice vinegar, honey, dried tarragon, Dijon mustard and black pepper in a jar with a lid.
  • Shake well to combine.
  • Serve with the arugula, citrus and chicken salad.
