How to Make Broiled Grapefruit
- Preheat your broiler to high heat.
- Cut each grapefruit in half horizontally.
- Using a sharp knife, carefully cut around each grapefruit segment to loosen the fruit, being careful not to cut into the flesh.
- Place the grapefruit halves, cut-side up, in a 15-inch x 10-inch baking pan.
- In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar.
- Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture evenly over the grapefruit halves.
- Drizzle each grapefruit half with 1 teaspoon of melted butter.
- Place the baking pan on the top rack of your oven, 4 inches from the broiler element.
- Broil for 4-6 minutes, or until the sugar is bubbly and caramelized, watching closely to prevent burning.
- For garnish (optional): Rinse a small bunch of red grapes and toss them gently in the remaining brown sugar mixture.
- Place a few sugared grapes on top of each broiled grapefruit half.
- Serve immediately and enjoy warm!
