📝 Preparation Steps
1
Combine the olive oil, lime juice, honey, coriander, salt and freshly ground black pepper in a medium bowl. Add the shrimp and toss to evenly coat. Let the shrimp marinate for ⏱️ 30 minutes.
olive oil2 tablespoons¼ cup extra virgin olive oillime (juiced)1lime (zest and juice)1honey2 tablespoons½ teaspoon saltsalt1 teaspoonfreshly ground black pepperlarge shrimp (peeled and deveined)1 pound

While the shrimp is marinating, supreme the oranges and grapefruits. Slice off the top and the bottom of the fruit first to create a flat surface. Then run your knife down the sides of the orange, curving with the shape of the orange, to cut away all the peel. Carefully, make slices on either side of the membranes separating the orange segments, loosening the segments from the orange. Be sure to do this over a bowl to catch all the juices (which you can transfer to a glass and enjoy!).

Make the dressing by combining the white balsamic vinegar, lime juice, lime zest, honey, Dijon mustard and salt. Whisk in the olive oil, drizzling slowly to emulsify and thicken the dressing. Season with freshly ground black pepper.
