Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 pound sugar snap peas, strings removed and cut into thirds
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound lump crabmeat, picked over
1/2 small red onion, chopped
1/2 cup Lime Caper Vinaigrette
2 medium papayas, halved, seeds removed, and peeled
Lime wedges

Steps:

  • Bring a large saucepan filled with water to a boil over high heat. Generously salt water and return to a boil. Prepare an ice-water bath. Add snap peas to boiling water and cook until just tender, 45 to 60 seconds. Drain and immediately transfer to ice-water bath until cool. Drain again and pat dry; set aside.
  • Place crabmeat in a medium bowl and, using a fork, break it into bite-size pieces. Add peas and onion and stir to combine. Stir in vinaigrette; season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Slice a small piece off each papaya half along the rounded edge and place on a plate. Spoon 1/4 of the crab mixture into each papaya half, garnish with lime wedges, and serve.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover crab meat. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their fruits and vegetables.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my salad turned out really bland. I think I might have forgotten to add some of the ingredients.

This salad is a bit too expensive to make on a regular basis. The crab meat is especially pricey.


Nice work

I had a hard time finding fresh papaya. I ended up using canned papaya, and it just wasn't the same. I think fresh papaya is essential for this salad.

I found the dressing to be a bit too tangy. I think I would have preferred it with a little less vinegar.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less papaya or a different fruit altogether.

I'm not a huge fan of papaya, but I really enjoyed this salad. The papaya was sweet and juicy, and it paired well with the crab and vegetables. The dressing was also very good.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little more dressing. I think it would help to bring all the flavors together even more.
