Super starter, sensually spicy.
Ingredients
- 1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 large grapefruit, peeled and sectioned

- 1 large avocado, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice

- ⅛ teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
Directions
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the shrimp, and return to a boil. Cook the shrimp until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
