Crab Roll Filling

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crab Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh lump crab meat, finely diced celery, mayonnaise, Old Bay seasoning, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Gently fold the ingredients together until well mixed. Be careful not to break up the crab meat too much.

Old Bay Aioli

    Make the Aioli

    In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Old Bay seasoning, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Mix until smooth and well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Assemble the Crab Rolls

    Take a butter lettuce leaf and spoon a generous amount of the crab filling onto the leaf. Drizzle with Old Bay aioli. Top with a handful of potato chips for added crunch.
