Directions

  1. Place drained tomatoes, asparagus, carrot, corn, onion and crabmeat in medium bowl. Set aside.
  2. Whisk together oil, orange juice, honey, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper in small bowl. Pour over crab-vegetable mixture; toss to coat. Serve immediately by spooning into lettuce leaf 'cups' or place several lettuce leaves on each plate and top with crab salad.

Cook's Tip

To blanch asparagus, drop spears or cuts into large pan of boiling water and cook 3 to 4 minutes or until barely tender. Drain and place in ice cold water to quickly stop the cooking. Blanching partially cooks the asparagus and brightens the color. Entertaining? Wash and dry lettuce leaves, blanch asparagus and prepare dressing a day ahead. Quick assembly right before guests arrive will be a snap!
