Ingredients
-
8 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
-
1 teaspoon onion powder
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
-
¼ teaspoon chipotle pepper powder (Optional)
-
1 seedless watermelon, cut crosswise into 2-inch thick slices
-
1 (8 ounce) goat cheese log, cut into 8 slices
-
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
-
4 sprigs fresh basil
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 430 degrees F (220 degrees C).
-
Season shrimp all over with onion powder, garlic powder, salt, smoked paprika, and chipotle pepper powder. Set shrimp into a baking dish.
-
Bake shrimp in the preheated oven until bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, about 8 minutes.
-
Use a ring mold (slightly larger in diameter than the diameter of the goat cheese slices) to cut watermelon into circle shapes. Cut circle shapes into twelve 1/4-inch thick slices.
-
Place a slice of watermelon on a plate. Top with 1 slice cheese, 1 slice watermelon, 1 slice cheese, 1 slice watermelon, 2 shrimp, respectively, to form a salad stack. Repeat with remaining watermelon slices, cheese, and shrimp. Drizzle balsamic vinegar over each stack and garnish with basil.
Cook's Note:
