Ingredients
- 2 whole Ripe avocados
- 200 grams Lump crabmeat
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
- 2 whole Scallions (thinly sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Hot sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and carefully remove the pits. Scoop out a small amount of the flesh from each half to create a larger well for the stuffing. Set aside the avocado flesh for the filling.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the lump crabmeat, mayonnaise, lime juice, finely chopped cilantro, sliced scallions, and hot sauce.
Step 3
Finely chop the reserved avocado flesh and gently fold it into the crab mixture. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 4
Fill each avocado half with the crab mixture, mounding it slightly to ensure even portions.
Step 5
Sprinkle the stuffed avocados with paprika for a touch of color and added flavor.
Step 6
Serve immediately as an appetizer or light meal. Optionally, garnish with additional cilantro leaves for presentation.
