Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by grating the zest from the orange, lemon, and lime into a medium mixing bowl, ensuring to capture the vibrant oils. Next, juice each fruit using a citrus juicer or reamer, straining out any seeds, and combine the juices into another bowl.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the peeled and deveined cooked shrimp with the refrigerated crabmeat, finely chopped sweet onion, and sweet red pepper. Gently pour the prepared citrus juices over the seafood mixture and toss everything together using a spatula.
- On a pristine serving platter, layer a bed of shredded lettuce, creating a fresh, green base for our salad. Carefully spoon the seafood mixture on top of the lettuce, arranging it attractively.
- For an even more pronounced flavor, consider letting your Zesty Easy Seafood Salad chill in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes.

Notes
Using the freshest seafood enhances the flavor and texture. Adjust the zest and juice quantities to achieve your desired balance. Keep the seafood mixture and lettuce separate for best freshness before serving.
