Spicy Shrimp And Avocado Salad With Grapefruit Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk mayonnaise, ketchup, honey, and vinegar together in a bowl. Add diced red onion, salt, and pepper. Place a damp cloth under the bowl to keep from moving; add olive oil very slowly in a stream while whisking. Adjust seasoning if needed.
• Prepare plates with a bed of mixed greens. Center avocado slices on plates, surround with grapefruit segments, and top with shrimp. Drizzle generously with honey cider salad dressing and garnish with red onion slices.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• In a medium bowl, drizzle the shrimp with oil, salt, pepper, and oregano. Toss until the shrimp are evenly coated.
• Transfer the shrimp to a roasting tray and spread into one even layer.
• Roast for 6 minutes, until the shrimp have just turned pink.
• For the dressing, place the lime juice, water, avocado, Greek yogurt, salt, and pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. Set aside.
• In a large serving bowl, toss the romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, and shrimp until well combined.
• Transfer the salad to serving bowls and drizzle on the avocado dressing.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Dice the romaine into bite sized pieces, place in large salad bowl and set aside. In a medium non-stick pan heat the olive oil. Add the avocado and saute for 5 minutes. Remove the avocado with a slotted spoon and set aside in a bowl. Pour out all but 2 tablespoons of avocado oil into a small bowl, and reserve.
• Add the minced shallot to the skillet and return to medium heat. Cook, stirring until shallots begin to soften (about 30 seconds). Add the shrimp, salt and pepper and jalapenos or cayenne, if using, and saute until shrimp are cooked through (3-4 minutes).
• Remove from heat and spoon the shrimp into the bowl with the Avocado pieces. Add the chives and cilantro and fold together gently, just to combine the ingredients. With a rubber spatula, scrape any remaining oil in the skillet into the bowl with the reserved avocado oil. Whisk in the lime juice and salt and pepper to taste to make a dressing. Toss some of the dressing with the romaine until the lettuce is nicely coated, divide among serving plates. Top the lettuce with hot shrimp mixture, drizzle with additional dressing, garnish with cilantro and serve.

Steps:

• Make vinaigrette:
• Whisk together vinaigrette ingredients with salt and pepper to taste.
• Assemble salad:
• Cut peel, including all white pith, from fruit with a sharp paring knife and cut segments free from membranes. Halve enough grapefruit segments to measure 1 1/2 cups (reserve any remaining segments for another use).
• Coarsely chop hazelnuts. Melt butter in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides, then cook hazelnuts with salt and pepper to taste, stirring, until a shade darker, about 5 minutes. Transfer nuts to paper towels to cool, reserving skillet.
• Quarter avocados lengthwise, then pit and peel. Cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Drizzle with lime juice and season with salt and pepper.
• Pat shrimp dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté shrimp, turning them, until golden and just cooked through, about 3 minutes.
• Toss together spinach, half of grapefruit segments, and half of vinaigrette with salt and pepper to taste.
• Arrange avocados and remaining grapefruit on 4 plates and top with shrimp, salad, and sprouts. Spoon remaining vinaigrette over salad and sprinkle with nuts.

Steps:

• Place the mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until the vinaigrette is emulsified.
• Before serving, cut the avocados in 1/2, remove the seeds, and carefully peel off the skin. Cut each half into 4 thick slices. Toss the avocado slices in the vinaigrette to prevent them from turning brown. Use a large, sharp knife to slice the peel off the grapefruits (be sure to remove all the white pith), then cut between the membranes to release the grapefruit segments.
• Arrange the avocado slices around the edge of a large platter. Arrange the grapefruit segments in the center. Spoon the vinaigrette on top, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7 and put the bread chunks onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tsp of the oil, rub in with your hands, season, then bake for 10 mins until golden and crisp.
• While the croûtons bake, cut the peel and pith away from the grapefruit, then cut out the segments, dropping them into the bowl as you go. Squeeze the juice from the heart of one of the grapefruit into a separate smaller bowl.
• Peel, stone and slice the avocados and separate the leaves of the lettuce. Add to the segments along with the prawns. Whisk the sweet chilli sauce and remaining 1 tsp oil into the grapefruit juice, then season to taste. Once the croûtons are ready, cool for a few mins, then toss with the rest of the salad. Put onto plates and drizzle with the sweet chilli dressing to serve.

Steps:

• Combine the olive oil and cayenne pepper in a nonstick skillet. Heat over high heat until barely smoking. Add the shrimp and saute until the shrimp turn opaque, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Set aside to cool. Slice in half lengthwise. Set aside.
• Combine the grated lemon and orange rinds with the orange and lime juices in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Whisk in the olive oil. Add the salt and pepper. Add the avocado slices and grapefruit sections. Toss gently. Take the avocado slices and grapefruit sections out of the bowl, one by one, and arrange them in a large ring on a round platter, slightly overlapping each other. Add the shrimp to the citrus and toss in the remaining vinaigrette. Mound the shrimp in the center of the ring. Garnish with the mint.

• Boil 2 fresh tomatoes, 4 tomatillos and jalapenos for about 10 minutes.
