Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Trim the asparagus and place it on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and toss to coat. Roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes until tender.

  2. 2

    Blister the Tomatoes

    In a skillet over medium-high heat, add a little olive oil and the blistered tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and blistered, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Shrimp

    In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the shrimp, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for 3-4 minutes until they turn pink and opaque.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the crabmeat and zesty bianco sauce to the skillet with the shrimp. Stir gently to combine, and cook for an additional 2 minutes until heated through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Plate the roasted asparagus and top with the shrimp and crab mixture. Garnish with blistered tomatoes and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to taste.
