Whisk together mayonnaise, lemon juice, ketchup, relish, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl to make dressing.

Step 3
Combine crabmeat, lettuce, cucumber, and celery in a large bowl. Pour dressing over crabmeat mixture; toss to coat well.
