Pacific Crab Martinis

Recipe by Myra Kornfeld
Write a Review
Mango and avocado, as well as a picante Thai dressing complement the sweet-tasting crab in this martini appetizer. Vital Choice Alaskan Tanner Crab meat comes ready to eat, or scoop some meat from Vital Choice Dungeness Crab or Alaskan King Crab. After defrosting Dungeness or King Crab, simply crack open the claw and/or arm shells – which come pre-scored for your convenience – and scoop out the succulent meat. For an elegant presentation, serve in a martini glass accompanied by some avocado slices and chopped macadamia nuts.
