This is a classic that never goes out of style, especially for celebrations and special dinners. The combination of the sweetness of pineapple with the taste of the sea is always a winning choice. To season the ingredients and balance the dressing, we will use Bonsalt 0%.

Ingredients
-
400g cooked and peeled shrimp
-
1 small fresh pineapple (or half a large one)
-
2 extra pineapple slices for garnish

1 tablespoon ketchup (preferably sugar-free)

A few drops of orange juice

Professional Step-by-Step Preparation
-
Fruit preparation: Cut the fresh pineapple in half lengthwise and carefully remove the flesh, taking care not to break the shell if you are going to use it as a container. Cut the flesh into small cubes, discarding the central core if it is very hard.
-
Vegetable base: Wash and finely shred the lettuce into thin strips. Drain it well so it does not add water to the cocktail.
-
Making the pink sauce: In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the ketchup and the drops of orange juice until you get an even color. Add a pinch of Bonsalt 0% and white pepper to enhance the whole dish.
-
Mixing: In a large bowl, combine the pineapple cubes with the cooked shrimp. Add the pink sauce and stir gently so everything is well coated.
-
Plating: Divide the lettuce among the serving glasses (or the empty pineapple halves). Place the shrimp and pineapple mixture on top.
-
Final touch: Garnish with a small pineapple slice on the rim or a reserved whole shrimp. Serve very cold.
