Ingredients
- pink grapefruit. Grapefruit is a tropical citrus fruit. It has a sweet and sour taste. This fruit is rich in nutrients, antioxidants and fiber.
- cooked shrimps. Shrimps are one of the most consumed types of shelfish. They are quite nutritious and provide high amounts of certain nutrients, such as iodine. Shrimps often come already cooked in the grocery store. Good news: this is what you will need to make this recipe.
- balsamic vinegar. This vinegar has a sweet taste that perfectly complements the pink grapefruit and shrimps.
- extra virgin olive oil
How to make this shrimp salad
Using a sharp knife, cut the skin and all of the bitter white pith off the grapefruit. Working over a bowl, cut in between the membranes to release the sections. Add those sections to a salad bowl. (You can squeeze the juice from the membranes and transfer all excess juice into a separate glass to drink it later).
Add shrimps, olive oil and balsamic vinegar to the salad bowl. Mix the salad to make sure it is well coated with dressing. And voilà! Your shrimp salad is ready! Serve immediately. Bon appétit!
