Citrus, Shrimp and Quinoa Salad with Feta
Report
This satisfying citrus salad combines sharp grapefruit, clementine, and lime, along with shrimp, quinoa, and feta for a fresh and vibrant lunch. If you don’t like shrimp, skip it or use thin slices of medium-rare steak instead. For the seafood lovers, pair the salad with fresh, seared scallops.

Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup quinoa uncooked
- 16 medium Shrimp peeled and deveined
- 2 Tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon chipotle chili powder or smoked paprika
- 2 grapefruit cold, peeled and sliced into rounds or segmented
- 2 clementines cold, peeled and segmented
- 4 oz feta cheese crumbled
- 12 kalamata olives or dry-cured, in either case - pitted and chopped, Moroccan
- 1 lime sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. For the quinoa, to a medium saucepan, add the water and quinoa and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Uncover, fluff with a fork, and transfer to a large bowl.
- For the shrimp, on a large rimmed baking sheet, toss the shrimp with the oil, salt, and chipotle powder or smoked paprika. Roast for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the shrimp are bright pink. Add to the bowl with the quinoa, along with the grapefruit, clementine, feta, and olives. Gently toss to combine.
- If you are eating immediately, divide the salad between plates or bowls, top with the lime slices, and serve. If you are taking this to go, add a portion of the salad to a container, top with some lime slices, seal, and refrigerate until you are ready to take it with you. When you get to work, keep it chilled in the refrigerator or with a cooler pack in your bag until lunchtime. To serve, season with lime and enjoy.
