Time 26m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

12 to 15 fresh asparagus stalks
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons spicy or Dijon mustard
2 to 3 small tomatoes, diced
1 lemon, zested and juiced, plus more for dipping glass
1 lemon, zested and juiced, plus more for dipping glass
1 pound lump crabmeat, cleaned, picked and cooked
1 pound claw crabmeat, clean, picked and cooked
Lemon pepper and seasoning salt
House Seasoning, recipe follows
Crab boil seasoning (recommended: Old Bay)
Lemon wedges, for garnish
Olives, for garnish
1 cup salt
1/4 cup black pepper
1/4 cup garlic powder

Steps:

  • In a large pot bring salted water to a boil and blanch the asparagus by placing them in boiling salted water for 1 minute, and immediately shocking them in a bowl of ice water.
  • Trim the very bottom of the asparagus and discard. Cut off the top 2-inches of the asparagus and set aside for garnish. Finely chop the remaining asparagus. In a medium bowl, combine the asparagus with the mayonnaise, mustard, tomatoes, lemon zest and lemon juice. Gently fold the crabmeat into the asparagus mixture and season to taste with lemon pepper, seasoning salt and House Seasoning.
  • Using the extra lemon juice wet the rim of the martini glass and dip it into the crab boil seasoning. Put the crab mixture into the prepared glass and serve with the asparagus tops, lemon wedges, and olives as garnish.
  • Mix ingredients together and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my crab martini turned out really bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

The recipe was easy to follow, but the results were disappointing. The crab was overcooked and the avocado was mushy.

This was a bit too fishy for my taste. I think I'll stick to traditional crab cakes next time.

I'm not a huge fan of seafood, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The grapefruit and avocado balance out the crab flavor nicely.

This was surprisingly delicious! I wasn't sure how the grapefruit would taste with the crab, but it was really good.

I've made this recipe several times now and it always turns out great. It's a great way to use up leftover crab.
