Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Cut radicchio into thin strips. TIP: If you want to make the radicchio slightly less bitter, soak the cut up strips in ice water for 30 minutes, before drying and assembling the salad.
- Prepare other ingredients: Cut lettuce into thin strips. Zest one of the oranges (should be about 2 tsp zest) and reserve for the dressing. Peel the oranges and chop the avocado and pistachios.
- Assemble the salad: In a large bowl or platter, arrange the radicchio and lettuce, then top with orange segments and avocado. Sprinkle with chopped pistachios and parmesan.
- Make the dressing: In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for the dressing and stir to combine, adding salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour dressing over salad, or keep separate and add when serving. Enjoy!
Notes
Serve immediately or store in the fridge with the pistachios and dressing separate for up to 3 days.
