Tired of the same old boring shrimp? So was I!! So, I did some digging and came up with this twist to a recipe I saw with pink grapefruit. It's citrusy and wonderful!
Shrimp:
1 pound cooked shrimp, rinsed
2 cups of water
1 tsp salt
2 tsp lemon juice
Pink grapefruit sauce:
1 pink grapefruit peeled completely from rind
1/4 cup butter
1 tbsp lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste
Soak shrimp in mixture of two cups water, salt, and lemon juice for at least an hour.
While shrimp is soaking, peel grapefruit. Make sure to remove all rind and skin from grapefruit. You may want to cut the grapefruit in half and scoop out the fruit as this seems to go quicker. Once peeled, put aside.
Place 1/4 cup butter in small saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook butter until slightly brown in color. In a separate frying pan, heat shrimp on low heat making sure not to overheat.
Here's where it gets fun! While butter is boiling, add grapefruit, salt, and pepper. The grapefruit will flash boil brining out the flavor. Drain shrimp and place on serving dish. Drain some juice from the grapefruit sauce and then pour over shrimp. Top with some fresh grated Romano cheese. Enjoy!
