Snow Crab Tacos with Avocado and Taco Sauce

Snow Crab Tacos with Avocado and Taco Sauce

There is no cooking here beyond charring the tortillas. The wild snow crab is thawed and used as it is, and the sauce does the rest of the work: mayo or Greek yogurt with lime, smoked paprika, cumin and a hit of hot sauce. Build them with avocado, cilantro and a squeeze of lime.
