Ingredients

  • 2 ripe avocados, pitted and flesh roughly diced
  • 1 red onion, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup diced English cucumber
  • 8 (16/20 count) cooked shrimp (peeled and deveined and cut lengthwise in half)
  • 1/2 cup jumbo lump crabmeat
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup tomato ketchup
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce (recommend: Tabasco)
  • 2 tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup freshly chopped chives

Method

  • In a large bowl mix together the diced avocado, onions, cucumber, shrimp, and crabmeat and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • In another bowl or a kitchen blender mix together the yogurt, ketchup, and lemon juice.
  • When mixed thoroughly, slowly add the hot sauce, (not too much as it will over power the seafood).
  • To finish the dish, slowly add the dressing to the avocado mixture until slightly wet.
  • Place 3 to 4 slices of tomato in the center of each serving plate, slightly separate just so the tomatoes touch.
  • Fill an ice cream scoop with the salad and place in the center of the tomatoes.
  • Garnish with chopped chives and serve.
