Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1Â 1/2 c. low-fat lowfat milk
- 4 sm soft-shell crabs cleaned
- 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
- Â Â Salt to taste
- Â Â Freshly-grnd black pepper to taste
- 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
- 2 Tbsp. minced flat-leaf parsley
- Â Â Remoulade Sauce (see recipe),
Directions
- Place the lowfat milk in a shallow bowl large sufficient to hold the crabs in a single layer. Add in the crabs and let them soak for 1 hour. Drain and throw away the lowfat milk.
- Season the flour with salt and pepper in a paper or possibly plastic bag. Lightly dredge each crab in the flour.
- Heat the oil and butter together in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and saute/fry the crabs in batches till golden brown, about 4 min per side. Add in more oil and butter to the pan if necessary.
- To serve, place a crab in the center of 4 salad plates and garnish each with a sprinkle of minced parsley and a small dollop of Remoulade Sauce.
- This recipe yields 4 servings.
- Comments: Soaking the crabs in lowfat milk helps plump them up when cooked. Combining butter and oil results in crispy crabs.
