Summer Seafood Salad with mango and crab is perfect for summer entertaining. Using fresh lump crab from Adelphia Seafood makes this a delightful dish with flavors and textures that play well with each other. Serve each portion in individual cups and for a special treat serve with Adelphia’s EZ Grillers shrimp!
EZ Grillers are fresh-water shrimp sourced from Bangladesh and available all season at Adelphia Seafood. They are large, like prawn, but with a sweeter, lobster-like flavor and texture and one of Adelphia’s best sellers. One or two pieces work well per person.
Brush with coconut oil, rub with a spice blend, and grill on high heat with the shell on. Zack, helpful Adelphia team member, suggested roasting cumin, star anise, and coriander on the stove and pulsing it in a spice grinder. Add black pepper. Before serving the shrimp remove the shell and butterfly.
