Seafood Salad: A Treasure of Fresh Flavors

There’s something magical about seafood salads. The way tender shrimp, succulent crab, and sweet scallops come together with crisp vegetables and a zesty dressing creates a dish that feels both luxurious and refreshing. The recipe I stumbled upon was so delightful that I immediately printed it like a treasure and framed it—because some recipes deserve more than just a spot in a cookbook. Here’s how to make this exquisite seafood salad step by step.

Ingredients

For this seafood salad, you’ll need:

• Seafood:
  • 200g cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 150g cooked crab meat
  • 150g cooked scallops
• Vegetables and Greens:
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, finely sliced
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 4 cups mixed salad greens (arugula, spinach, romaine)
• Dressing:
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional: a pinch of smoked paprika for a subtle kick
• Garnish:
  • Fresh dill or parsley
  • Lemon wedges

Step-by-Step Method

Step 1: Prepare the Seafood

If your seafood is pre-cooked, ensure it’s fully thawed and drained. For fresh seafood:

1. Shrimp: Boil shrimp in lightly salted water for 2–3 minutes until pink and firm. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking.
2. Scallops: Sear scallops in a hot nonstick pan with a teaspoon of olive oil for 1–2 minutes on each side until golden.
3. Crab Meat: If using fresh crab, gently steam or boil it until the shells turn bright orange, then extract the meat.

Once prepared, cut larger pieces into bite-sized portions for easy mixing.
