Directions

  1. Make the dressing by whisking together the lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, and garlic in a bowl.

  2. Toss together the sectioned grapefruit, shrimp, chicken breast, coconut, shallots, chile pepper, mint, and cilantro in a large bowl. Drizzle approximately 3/4 of the dressing into the grapefruit mixture and toss to combine. Combine the remaining dressing with the shredded lettuce in a separate bowl shortly before serving.

  3. Arrange the lettuce on a large platter. Layer the grapefruit mixture on top of the lettuce.

Recipe Note

This is my combination of 'Thai Yam Som-O' and a marinated-shrimp and coconut salad I had at Bellagio's. If pomelo is available in your area, use it in place of the grapefruit.
