Mmmm, Dinner. Broiled Grapefruit and stuff.

Tonight I made a great dinner. It was broiled teriyaki salmon, rice with raisins and almond slices, salad, and an appetizer of broiled grapefruit. Anyway, I wanted to share the recipe of the appetizer because it's so amazingly easy to make, but seems really fancy. I don't really like grapefruit normally, but this is great.

Broiled Grapefruit Chalet Suzanne

  • 1 Red grapefruit
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 4 Tbsp cinnamon-sugar mix (1/5 cinnamon, 4/5 sugar)

Slice grapefruit in half and cut membrane around center of the fruit. Cut around each section half, close to membrane, so that the fruit is completely loosened from its shell. Fill the center of each half with 1 Tbsp butter. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp sugar over each half, then sprinkle each with 2 Tbsp cinnamon-sugar mixt. Place grapefruit on shallow baking pan and broil just long enough to brown tops and heat to bubbling hot. Remove from oven and serve hot. Makes 2 servings.

I've done something similar that involves soaking a pineapple slice in coconut milk, coating it with cane sugar, then grilling it for a couple of minutes or so. That's pretty good too, if you want to give that a try.

Yeah, sounds like the same concept. Can you do it in the oven? Because grilling in a dorm room is a hassle.
