Instructions
Step 1
Prepare the dressing by mixing the lime juice with the sugar, water, vinegar and fish sauce or soy sauce. Add the Thai chili pepper or hot pepper flakes.
Step 2
Mix half of the dressing with the napa cabbage and chopped cilantro and set aside to marinate at room temperature. Save the rest of the dressing for the last step of the recipe.
Step 3
Slice off both ends of the grapefruit and peel it down to the pulp (no white film), following the natural curve of the fruit. Slice the grapefruit into fairly narrow rings (approx. ¼ in/½ cm thickness), and cut each ring into quarters.
Step 4
Divide the cabbage onto two large serving plates, and arrange the grapefruit and avocado pieces on each plate. Shred the chicken breast coarsely and distribute the pieces on the plates. Garnish with a few fresh cilantro leaves, drizzle the rest of the dressing, and serve.
