Steps

  1. 1

    Begin by preheating the oven to a temperature of 375°F.

  2. 2

    Start by zesting one of the grapefruits using a zester or fine grater to collect 1 teaspoon of zest. Next, use a large, sharp knife to remove the peel and pith from both grapefruits. Hold the peeled fruit over a bowl and carefully separate the grapefruit segments by cutting between the membranes; aim for around 1 cup of segments. Squeeze the membranes over the bowl to obtain approximately 1/4 cup of juice (any excess can be saved for later use). Finally, add the zest and segments to the bowl for further use in your recipe.

  3. 3

    Begin by cutting the fennel bulb in half lengthwise, then thinly slice it before combining it with the grapefruit segments in a bowl. Next, add olive oil, olives, parsley, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and red pepper flakes to the mixture. Stir everything together until well combined.
