Citrus Salad with Honey Lime Yogurt and Spicy Walnuts
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 cup California walnuts
- 2 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 cup full-fat, plain Greek yogurt
- 1 lime, zested & juiced
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 grapefruit, segmented
- 2 medium oranges, segmented
- 1 sprig of fresh mint, stem removed
- Flaky sea salt
Preparation
- Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- Warm a skillet over medium heat and add butter. Once butter is melted and foamy, add walnuts, sugar and cayenne pepper and stir to combine. Cook and stir for about 5 minutes, or until sugar mixture melts and begins to coat the nuts. Remove from heat and immediately spread the nuts onto sheet pan in a single layer to let cool and harden.
- Meanwhile, combine yogurt and honey in a medium bowl and whisk until well-combined. Fold in the cooled walnuts, reserving 2 tablespoons for garnish.
- Spread the yogurt/walnut mixture on a serving platter. Scatter citrus segments on top the yogurt, followed by the remaining walnuts, mint leaves, and a pinch of flaky salt.
