This Seafood Salad is one of those meals that’s effortless to prepare yet delivers big on flavor and satisfaction. It’s also super quick and incredibly easy to make. All you need to do is chop up all the veggies and toss them together with shrimp, and crab meat. The creamy dressing ties everything together with a tangy kick that keeps you coming back for more. Start by finely chopping 1 stalk of celery, 1 small red onion, and ½ medium red bell pepper. I also chopped my shrimp and my crab because I wanted smaller pieces but this is totally up to you. Once everything is prepped, add all the veggies and seafood to a medium size bowl. In a separate small bowl, combine ¼ cup mayonnaise, ¼ cup sour cream, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning (if using). Whisk these ingredients together until the dressing is smooth and well blended. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Make sure to whisk vigorously to ensure the dressing is creamy and free of lumps. Pour the dressing over the seafood and vegetables, then gently toss everything together to coat evenly. Use a large spoon or salad tongs to gently mix the ingredients to prevent the seafood from breaking apart. Cover the salad with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. If you’re short on time, even a 15-minute chill can enhance the taste. When you’re ready to serve, give the salad a gentle stir to redistribute any dressing that may have settled. Garnish with 2 tablespoons of fresh dill or parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
