Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 fluid ounces pineapple juice
3 tablespoons orange juice
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 pound large peeled and deveined cooked shrimp
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 (10 ounce) bag baby spinach leaves
1 mango - peeled, seeded and diced
½ cup chopped macadamia nuts
½ cup dried banana chips
4 ounces crumbled goat cheese
¾ cup sweetened flaked coconut, toasted

Steps:

  • Prepare the salad dressing by whisking together the pineapple juice, orange juice, and 1/4 cup olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside. Brush the shrimp with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside. Place the spinach leaves, mango, macadamia nuts, and banana chips into a large mixing bowl.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Heat the shrimp in the skillet on both sides until just warm in the center, about 1 minute per side.
  • To assemble the salads, drizzle the spinach mixture with the salad dressing, and toss until evenly combined. Divide onto four plates. Divide the warm shrimp among the plates, and top with goat cheese. This way the goat cheese will melt down a little from the warmth of the grilled shrimp. Sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes to serve.

I found that the shrimp were a bit overcooked, but that's probably because I didn't cook them for the full amount of time recommended in the recipe.

The dressing is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's easy to adjust the amount of honey to suit your own preferences.

This salad is a delightful symphony of flavors and textures. The sweet and tangy dressing perfectly complements the tender shrimp and fresh spinach. I especially enjoyed the crunch of the almonds and the subtle heat of the red pepper flakes.
