2 Tbsp Lemon juice
1 /2 cup Green onions, chopped
2 Tbsp Red onion,  minced
2 Tbsp Celery, chopped fine
2 Tbsp Fresh chives, chopped
1 Tbsp Parsley,  chopped
1 tsp Garlic, minced
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 /2 tsp Dry oregano
1/4 cup Pickled okra, chopped
1 Tbsp Jalapeno, minced
1 tsp Salt
1 /2 tsp Black pepper, freshly ground
1 tsp Hot sauce
1 pound Blue crab claws

Instructions

In a large, glass bowl, combine all ingredients except claws. Whisk to mix well. Add crab claws and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least six hours or overnight.
