How to Make Creole Crab Stuffed Avocados
- Cook 1 cup of rice according to package directions. Let cool completely.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon ketchup, and 2-3 dashes Tabasco sauce.
- Carefully cut 2 ripe avocados in half lengthwise. Remove the pit. Using a spoon, gently scoop out the avocado flesh, leaving about 1/4 inch of avocado attached to the skin for stability.
- Dice the scooped avocado flesh into small pieces.
- Gently fold in 1 cup cooked, cooled rice, 1 cup lump crab meat, and the mayonnaise mixture.
- Stir in 1/2 cup diced tomatoes.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, or other spices as needed.
- Spoon the crab mixture into each avocado half, mounding slightly.
- Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, chives, or green onions).
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
