Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the rosé vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, chili paste and salt until combined. Set aside.
- To prepare the oranges and grapefruit, carefully remove the skin and white pith with a small pairing knife. Slice into ½-inch rounds, as pictured above.
- On a large platter, shingle the citrus and mozzarella in an alternating pattern: grapefruit slice, fennel slice, mozzarella slice, orange slice, fennel slice, mozzarella slice, and so on. Sprinkle with the mint leaves, and evenly drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad. Top with a hearty pinch of flakey sea salt, and serve.
