Steps

1Charred lemons
2Optional step, if not charring the lemons, skip to making the dressing. Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the lemon halves with about 1/2 - 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once the grill is hot, place it cut side down on the grill, cooking for 1-2 minutes or when it has some nice grill marks. Remove from the grill pan and set aside.
3Charred lemon dressing
4In a small mixing bowl, combine 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, the juice from half of a charred lemon from earlier, 1-2 tablespoons honey (to taste), zest of 1 lemon, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and optional basil ribbons. Whisk to combine, and adjust seasonings to taste. Set aside to let the flavors come together.
5Salad assembly
6On a serving plate, add a mixture of arugula and radicchio. Layer on blackberries, slivered almonds, goat cheese, and avocado. Drizzle with the homemade dressing.
7Garnish with remaining charred lemon, pepper, and more basil if desired. Enjoy right away!
8This salad is best served immediately and we don't recommend making it in advance. If you need to store leftovers, you need to separate the ingredients into their own airtight containers for up to 3 days. Do not dress the salad in advance. We also recommend cutting up avocado fresh and right before serving. Do not freeze.
