Crab, Carrot, Caper, and Lime Salad

Saw this one in the "Saveur" mag.'s Grilling issue. Looked SO pretty and DELISH!!
(serves 8)

Juice of 3 limes (approx. 2 oz.)
2 med. shallots, minced
1 T. champagne or cider vinegar
6-8 oz. EVOO
Kosher* salt
Freshly* ground pepper
Hot sauce (I would use Tabasco*)
3 T. roughly chopped basil
1/2 bunch finely chopped scallions
1 lb. jumbo lump Louisiana crabmeat, picked for shells
1/2 cup fine dice organic* carrots, blanched and shocked in ice water
2 T. chopped capers
Basil leaves, sliced ripe avocado, for garnish

Place lime juice, shallots, and vinegar in a small bowl and whisk in the olive oil. Season to taste with S&P and hot sauce. In another bowl, mix the rest of the ingredients through capers, then fold in the lime vinaigrette until ingredients are well coated and the salad is tasty. Garnish with basil leaves and avocado slices.
