SHRIMP*****Gordon Ramsay's Prawn Cocktail
By Unblond1
We both love this and it's an easy make-ahead dinner.
12/05/15 - Most recently, I just tossed my shrimp (in chunks) and avocado (no apple) with romaine and arugula tossed with Pepperoncini Picante, lemon juice and olive oil. I really liked that and in that case, you can reduce the dressing a bit if it's just for Dan.

Preparation
Step 1
* Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit and score the flesh into cubes. Dice the apple and combine with the avocado. Squeeze lemon juice over to prevent discolouration.
* To make the sauce, mix the mayo, chili sauce, cayenne and a squeeze of lemon juice together in a bowl. Season to taste with Tabasco, Worcestershire and a splash of brandy.
* Clean and devein shrimp, removing tails for easier eating, unless you're trying to impress someone.
* If using raw shrimp, use shrimp boil recipe to cook shrimp, drain and refrigerate until serving time.
* If serving in a bowl or glass, cut shrimp into bite-sized pieces. If serving with a wedge, leave whole.
* Place a spoonful of the sauce in the bottom of each serving glass. Add a layer of shredded lettuce to each glass. Spoon the avocado and apple over the lettuce and top with another layer of sauce. Arrange the shrimp on top and finish with a final layer of sauce.
* ALTERNATE SERVING METHOD (02/07/10) Cut a head of iceberg into wedges and place 1/4 of a head on each plate. surround with avocado slices and shrimp and drizzle all with the dressing.
