Summer Crabmeat Salad-Stuffed Tomatoes
Ingredients:
- 8 ounces of deboned crabmeat
- 1/2 red onion, diced
- 1/2 bunch of cilantro, chopped
- 1 mango, diced
- 1 tablespoon canned corn
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 4 large tomatoes
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Crabmeat Salad
- In a mixing bowl, combine the deboned crabmeat, diced red onion, chopped cilantro, diced mango, canned corn, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, and Dijon mustard.
- Ensure the mixture is well seasoned and thoroughly mixed.
- Chill the summer crabmeat salad in the refrigerator for at least 35 minutes.
Step 2: Prepare the Tomatoes
- While the crabmeat salad is chilling, cut the 4 tomatoes in half horizontally and carefully remove all the inner seeds to create tomato "shells."
- Dice the remaining tomato meat that was removed from the insides.
- Season the tomato halves with a pinch of salt and a dash of freshly ground black pepper.
Step 3: Assemble the Stuffed Tomatoes
- Retrieve the chilled summer crabmeat salad from the fridge and add the diced tomato to it. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.
- Carefully mound the prepared crabmeat salad into the hollowed-out tomato halves, creating a generous serving in each.
- If desired, plate the stuffed tomatoes individually or serve them as a delightful family-style dish.
