Seafood Spheres on Crostini
- 2 tablespoons finely diced celery
- 1 tablespoon freshly chopped flat-leaf parsley
- 2 teaspoons freshly chopped thyme leaves
- 1 lemon, zest, finely grated
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 pound smoked salmon, chopped fine
- 1/4 pound cooked lobster meat
- 1/4 pound cooked crabmeat, picked through to remove remnants of shells
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 loaf French bread, sliced into 16 (1/2-inch) slices and lightly toasted
- 16 small parsley sprigs, for garnish
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Combine celery, parsley, thyme, lemon zest and mayonnaise in a bowl.
- Then fold the salmon, lobster, and crabmeat into the mixture so that it's just combined and the crab is not broken or mashed.
- Season with salt and pepper, as needed.
- Arrange bread on a baking sheet.
- Using a melon baller, or small scoop, spoon seafood mixture onto bread and bake briefly in oven until seafood balls are lightly browned.
- Garnish with parsley.
