Shrimp, Watermelon and Goat Cheese Salad

4

Serves 4

While this recipe may sound a little odd, once you try it, you'll love the combination of three of summer's favorite foods. Brush some good hearth bread with olive oil and grill it briefly to serve alongside.

    Ingredients: 
    • 1 (16 ounce) package frozen tail-on raw shrimp
    • Balsamic vinaigrette dressing
    • 2 small ripe tomatoes, quartered
    • 2 cups watermelon in large, bite-sized chunks, seeds removed
    • 2 ounces fresh goat cheese, crumbled
    • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
    • Salt and pepper to taste

    Method: 

    If using wood or bamboo skewers, put in water to soak. Preheat oiled grill to medium high. Brush shrimp with dressing and grill 2-3 minutes, basting and turning a few times. Remove cooked shrimp and set aside while you compose salad. On a large platter or individual plates, arrange tomatoes, watermelon and goat cheese. Top with grilled shrimp, season with salt and pepper, and garnish with chopped basil. Serve with additional vinaigrette.
