Shrimp Terrine With Cucumber Whipped Grapefruit And Avocado Puree Recipes

Steps:

• For the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the grapefruit juice, oil, mint, zest, chile paste and salt. Set aside to let the flavors marry.
• For the skewers: Preheat a grill pan set over medium-high heat. Skewer one shrimp in a "C" shape, followed by a grapefruit segment, then followed by another shrimp. Continue skewering the remaining shrimp and grapefruit segments. Sprinkle the salt evenly over the skewers and drizzle with the olive oil. Grill the skewers until cooked through and opaque, about 3 minutes per side. Spoon the dressing over the shrimp and serve.

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:

• Marinate the shrimp with the olive oil, garlic, thyme, oregano, for at least an hour up to 24. Peel the grapefruit and cut into segments, lay out on a small sheet pan and top lightly with super fine sugar. Place grapefruit under broiler and cook until golden. In a saucepan, over medium high heat, reduce the grapefruit juice by 3/4's, add the heavy cream and reduce until thick. Remove from the heat and slowly add the butter, constantly whisking and finish with salt and pepper to taste. Grill the shrimp on an open flame, or in a grill pan until done. Plate shrimp (3 per person); alternate with grapefruit segments on the plate. Place masche or watercress in the center of the plate. Drizzle the grapefruit sauce over and serve.
