Fennel and Orange Salad Topped With Prawns / Shrimp image

Very simple salad to serve as an entrée at any summer party, perfect to prepare in advanced. You could use cooked or raw prawns/shrimp, but please make sure there is 500 grams once it's been shelled and divined or there may not be enough for everyone. If you are using raw prawns/shrimp - you could boil a pot of water and add prawns/shrimps for 3 - 5 mins (until they are floating). Then remove the prawns/shrimps from the boiling water. Place the prawns/shrimps into a bowl filled with iced cold water, this will quickly cool off the prawns/shrimp and avoid them from over cooking. Does not include marinating time. (Revised Recipe)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 red chili, finely minced

500 g fresh prawns or 500 g shrimp, shelled and divined

  • Place/Style the prawn/shrimp onto of the salad, discard any marinate.
  • Serve and Enjoy.

Easy to make and bursting with flavor. I used grapefruit instead of oranges and it was still delicious.
