Preparation Steps
Prepare the Seafood
Clean and shuck the oysters, removing any shells or debris. Cook the shrimp by boiling them in salted water for about 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Drain and cool before serving.
Make the Crab Salad
In a mixing bowl, combine the crab meat, diced celery, finely chopped red onion, mayonnaise, and fresh parsley. Mix gently until all ingredients are well incorporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Assemble the Plateau
On a large platter, arrange the cleaned oysters on one side, the shrimp cocktail in a bowl with cocktail sauce on the other side, and the crab salad in a separate bowl. Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh parsley.
Add Daily Additions
Include any seasonal fish or shellfish as daily additions on the platter, ensuring they are fresh and ready to serve.
