We used imitation crab to make this recipe, its sweet and salty flavor along with the spices, butter, garlic and a good splash of lime juice make it a perfect dish for rushed days or weekends when we don’t want to spend so much time in the kitchen.

I served it over white rice with chopped parsley as a garnish, and some lemon wedges. Not a single piece was left when I served this at home!

2. Add the chopped onion and celery, cook for about 3-4 minutes. Add the spices and mix well. Add the garlic and let it cook for 1 minute. Finally, add the crab meat tossing gently until all the crab is coated in the garlic, butter and spices and it smells very fragrant.
