CRAB-STUFFED AVOCADOS



Crab-Stuffed Avocados image

We couldn't resist stuffing cup-shaped avocado halves, here gently seared until lightly caramelized. Sweet crabmeat dressed with zingy lemon and tarragon is a nice complement to the buttery avocado; chopped cooked shrimp or shredded chicken breast would also work. You could also fill the halves with a fresh summer squash salad or black bean salsa. If your avocado pit is on the small side, hollow out the avocado a bit to make more room for the filling.

Provided by Robin Bashinsky

Yield Serves 4 (serving size: 1 filled avocado half)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup canola mayonnaise
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
12 ounces lump crabmeat, shell pieces removed
Cooking spray
2 ripe avocados, halved and pitted

Steps:

  • Combine first 4 ingredients in a bowl; gently fold in crab.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Coat pan with cooking spray. Place avocado halves, cut sides down, in pan; cook 2 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • Place avocado halves, cut sides down, on a cutting board; cut a very small (1/16-inch) slice from the bottom of each half so that it stands flat. Turn over; spoon about 1/2 cup crab mixture into each avocado half.

Crab-Stuffed Avocados by John Besh image

You can make the dressing for the crab salad in advance and pick the crab from the shells a day ahead, but don't combine the two or cut and fill the avocados until moments before you're ready to serve. The bright crab flavor will become muddled if seasoned in advance and cut avocados have a tendency to oxidize and darken. -From My Family Table by John Besh/Andrews McMeel Publishing
