Method

Preparation of Seafood

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a pot of boiling salted water, add the large shrimp. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Remove and plunge them into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sear the Tuna

    Heat a skillet over high heat. Season the Ahi tuna steak with salt and pepper. Sear the tuna for about 1-2 minutes on each side for a rare finish. Remove from the skillet and let it cool before slicing thinly.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Oysters

    Shuck the fresh oysters if not already done. Keep them on a bed of crushed ice to maintain freshness.

  4. 4

    Arrange the Crab Claws

    Place the cooked crab claws in a serving dish on ice to keep them cold.

Serving the Dish

  1. 5

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce and wasabi paste to create a dipping sauce. Add fresh lemon juice for a zesty flavor.

  2. 6

    Arrange the Seafood

    On a large platter, arrange the shrimp, seared tuna slices, oysters, and crab claws. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and lemon wedges around the platter.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve the raw bar with the dipping sauce and cocktail sauce on the side for guests to enjoy.
