Tantalizing Shrimp & Grapefruit Salad: A Refreshing Flavor Fusion

Tantalizing Shrimp & Grapefruit Salad: A Refreshing Flavor Fusion

August 26, 2025 Written by Olivia

Today, I am excited to share a recipe that combines two of my favorite things: seafood and citrus fruits. This dish is perfect for a light and refreshing summer meal, but it can also be enjoyed year-round. The combination of the briny shrimp with the tangy grapefruit is truly a match made in heaven.

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:
– 400g shrimp, peeled and deveined
– 2 grapefruits, segmented
– 1 red chili, thinly sliced
– 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
– 2 tbsp olive oil
– Salt and pepper to taste

For this recipe, you will need the following kitchen tools:

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • frying pan

To start, heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and opaque. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked shrimp, grapefruit segments, sliced chili, and torn mint leaves. Toss gently to mix everything together.

Serve the shrimp and grapefruit salad immediately, while the shrimp are still warm. The combination of flavors is truly delightful – the sweetness of the shrimp pairs perfectly with the tartness of the grapefruit and the heat from the chili.

This dish serves 4 and each serving weighs approximately 150g. One serving of this shrimp and grapefruit salad contains approximately 200 calories.

A clever tip for this recipe is to let the salad marinate in the fridge for about an hour before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together even more, creating an even more spectacular dish.

I hope you give this shrimp and grapefruit salad a try – it’s a unique combination that is sure to impress your taste buds. Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite herbs or spices to make it your own. Enjoy!
