Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Sauce

In a small saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the serrano peppers and dried árbol peppers, cooking until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

2

Blend the Sauce

Transfer the cooked peppers to a blender. Add lime juice and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning if necessary and set aside.

3

Fry the Habaneros

In a small pan, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the habanero peppers and fry until they are crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

4

Combine Ingredients

In a mixing bowl, gently combine the lump crab meat with the cilantro and a pinch of salt. Drizzle with some of the prepared sauce and mix gently.

5

Serve

On a serving plate, place the crab mixture and drizzle with additional sauce. Top with crispy fried habaneros. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
