This is an exceptional way to enjoy fresh, healthy lobster, King crab, shrimp and vegetables with tons of flavor.
The celery and carrots bring a satisfying crunch while the capers, jalapeño and lemon juice balance the acidity, all delivering a bright and beautiful dish with some kick!
Serves 8
3/4 lb cooked large shrimp (peeled, deveined, tails removed), halved crosswise
1/2 lb fresh lump King crab leg meat, cooked and shelled
1/2 lb fresh lobster meat, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/4 cup finely diced carrot
1/4 cup finely diced celery
1 tbsp drained tiny capers
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 tspn finely minced red or green jalapeño pepper, ribs and seeds removed
2 tbsps chopped, fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/3 cup highest quality extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from 1 large lemon)
Place the shrimp, crab, lobster, carrot, celery and capers in a large bowl. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold together the ingredients, being careful not to break up the crab too much. Season with salt and pepper.
Next, add the jalapeño pepper and parsley, then carefully fold in the olive oil and lemon juice, tasting as you go along. Adjust the seasonings and serve immediately, or chill for up to 6 hours. Divide seafood between 8 wine or martini glasses for serving.
