Step 4: Assemble the Seafood Salad
- Gently add the seafood mixture to the salad base.
- Drizzle the dressing over the top.
- Toss carefully to coat all ingredients evenly without mashing the avocado or breaking the seafood.
Step 5: Serve
- Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual bowls.
- Optional: Garnish with lemon wedges or a sprinkle of paprika for extra color.
- Serve immediately while the seafood is fresh and slightly warm, or chill for 15–20 minutes for a cool, refreshing version.
Tips for the Perfect Seafood Salad
- Freshness Matters: Use the freshest seafood possible for best flavor.
- Don’t Overcook: Seafood cooks quickly; overcooking leads to rubbery textures.
- Customizable: Add other ingredients like cherry tomatoes, olives, or capers.
- Make-Ahead: Prepare the seafood and dressing in advance, but assemble just before serving to keep the greens crisp.
This Seafood Salad is a perfect blend of textures and flavors — tender seafood, crisp vegetables, creamy avocado, and zesty dressing. It’s a dish that’s as visually appealing as it is delicious, ideal for dinner parties, summer lunches, or a healthy weeknight meal.
If you want, I can also make a creamy seafood salad version that’s more like a rich, chilled classic seafood salad for sandwiches or wraps.
Do you want me to do that?
