Ingredients:
- 1 seedless watermelon
- 4 handfuls arugula
- 1/2 pound of feta cheese
- 1 pound veined shrimp
- salt, pepper, cayenne
- 2 limes, extra-virgin olive oil,
- 1 teaspoon of sugar
- peeled sunflower or pumpkin seeds
Method:
- Cut the watermelon in half, then slice each half into 1.5-inch slices. Remove the rind, then cut the slices into chunks. Put the chunks into a large bowl.
- De-vein the shrimp then season with the salt, pepper and cayenne.
- Marinate shrimp in fridge under a covered plate for 15 minutes.
- Heat a nonstick pan on medium. Drizzle olive oil over it. Cook the shrimp about 1 minute per side, then place on a plate to cool.
- To make the dressing, juice two limes, then add twice as much extra-virgin olive oil. Mix in with a teaspoon of sugar, and that is your vinaigrette.
- Add the Arugula leaves to mix with the watermelon, serve into individual plates.
- Crumble feta cheese over top of each plate, and sprinkle pumpkin seeds as well.
- Carefully place a few shrimp onto each plate, and serve.
