This is the BEST Low Carb Creamy Crab Salad Recipe; it's a chilled crab-based salad with a creamy, flavorful dressing! Add the butter to a small skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the onion and cook until softened, but not browned, about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute more, stirring constantly.
You can substitute any seafood you like or omit the shrimp and keep it as a crab salad. I like to use a food processor to chop the onions and celery.
Heat a skillet on medium-high heat with the olive oil. When hot, add the shrimp and cook for 3-4 minutes, flipping halfway through until the shrimp turns bright pink. Add the crab and 1/2 teaspoon of the Old Bay Seasoning.
