Ingredients
- 16 oz Lump crab meat
- 2 large Celery stalks
- 2 medium Scallions
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 2 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
- 4 tbsp Coconut cream
- 1 tbsp Fresh dill
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Sea salt
- 8 large Butter lettuce leaves
Directions
Step 1
Begin by thoroughly rinsing the lump crab meat under cold water and then pat it dry using paper towels.
Step 2
Finely chop the celery stalks and scallions, and place them in a mixing bowl.
Step 3
Add the lump crab meat to the mixing bowl with the celery and scallions.
Step 4
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, fresh lemon juice, and coconut cream until smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Finely chop the fresh dill and add it to the dressing mixture, followed by the garlic powder, black pepper, and sea salt. Stir until well-combined.
Step 6
Pour the dressing over the crab, celery, and scallion mixture, and gently fold everything together using a spatula to ensure even coating without breaking up the crab meat too much.
Step 7
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more lemon juice, salt, or pepper according to preference.
Step 8
Prepare the butter lettuce leaves by washing them gently and patting them dry with a paper towel.
Step 9
Spoon a generous amount of the crab mix into each lettuce leaf, folding the leaf around the filling to create a roll.
Step 10
Arrange the stuffed lettuce leaves on a serving platter and chill in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes before serving to enhance flavors.
Step 11
Serve the Paleo Classic Crab Rolls immediately as a refreshing appetizer or light meal.
