Mound equal amounts of rice on warm plates, spoon shrimp onto rice, and garnish with grapefruit segments, endive leaves and basil. Serve immediately.
Tips
The presentation of this dish looks fit for a dinner party...however, I served this to my 3 year old and he absolutely loved it! Either way this is a delightful dish for anyone, no matter what age you are!
