1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1 1/2 tablespoons fish sauce

6 shallots, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon chopped red chile pepper
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves

Make the dressing by whisking together the lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, and garlic in a bowl.
Toss together the sectioned grapefruit, shrimp, chicken breast, coconut, shallots, chile pepper, mint, and cilantro in a large bowl. Drizzle approximately 3/4 of the dressing into the grapefruit mixture and toss to combine. Combine the remaining dressing with the shredded lettuce in a separate bowl shortly before serving.
