  • Pick and clean crabmeat. Peel and finely dice mango.

  • Place artichokes in ice water.
  • When artichokes are cool enough to handle, discard first layer of leaves.
  • Carefully peel off artichoke leaves (you should get about a dozen good-sized leaves) and snip off the small thorn on the end of each leaf.
  • Set leaves aside and allow to dry.
  • Zest lemon, lime and orange into blender.
  • Squeeze all three fruits and add juice, rice wine vinegar, sugar and Dijon mustard into blender.
  • Slowly blend ingredients folding in olive oil to make the marinade.
  • Season crabmeat with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Toss in diced mango, fresh herbs and peppers then gently mix in the marinade.
  • Let mixture marinate for 15-20 minutes.
  • Place one tablespoon of crabmeat/mango mixture atop each artichoke leaf, top with a pinch of micorgreens and arrange on a platter for serving.
