Crabmeat and avocado pair so harmoniously and feature in some of the most delicious seafood salad recipes.

The fishy crab flavor and smooth, creamy avocado are natural partners. This flavorful seafood recipe is ideal for seafood fans who especially like the taste of crab.

Combining the crabmeat with crunchy red onion, smooth avocado and juicy mango results in this wonderful salad.

It’s a real feast for the senses with its vibrant colors and heavenly flavors, not to mention the lovely aroma this delicate and fragrant crab salad gives off.

The dressing is an unusual combination of citrus, honey and tangy lime juice and these flavors work very nicely with the savory crab and onion.

The chives make an attractive and flavorful garnish but you can use cilantro if you can’t find chives because the flavor of cilantro will also work well here.

You might like to garnish the salad with fresh flowers or other colorful ingredients if you are making it for a dinner party or another occasion where the aim is to impress, or you can keep things simple and serve it with a couple of lemon wedges.

If you are making this for a picnic, gathering or boxed lunch, chop the avocado and toss it with the other ingredients, then it will be easier to transport, and keep it chilled until serving.
