Marie’s Grapefruit & Baby Shrimp Salad
Ingredients
2 heads butter lettuce
3 to 4 pink grapefruit
1 lb. good tasting baby shrimp
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 Tbs. white wine vinegar
2 Tbs. grapefruit juice
Coarse salt
Freshly ground white pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry the lettuce. Section the grapefruits, reserving the juice for the dressing.
Combine the vinegar, olive oil, and the grapefruit juice. Season to taste with the salt and pepper.
Toss the lettuce with enough dressing to coat the leaves. Arrange the lettuce on individual plates. Arrange slices of grapefruit in a pattern like a flower in the center of the lettuce. Place a mound of shrimp in the center of the grapefruit. Spoon over additional dressing.
Serves 6 to 8.
