Sauteed soft-shell crabs with cherry tomato and onion salsa

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
8 Soft-shell crabs; cleaned, soaking in
2 cups Milk
½ cup Flour
2 teaspoons Salt
¼ teaspoon Freshly-ground black pepper
=== FOR SALSA ===
1 pounds Cherry tomatoes; quartered
½ cup Chopped vidalia onion
⅓ cup Chopped parsley
2 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
6 tablespoons Vegetable oil
¼ cup Toasted pine nuts

Directions

While crabs are soaking, in a shallow dish stir together flour, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, combine tomatoes, onions, parsley, olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside until ready to serve. Remove crabs from milk, letting the excess drip off, and dredge them in flour mixture, dusting off any excess. In each of two large skillets heat 3 tablespoons oil over moderately-high heat until the oil is hot but not smoking. Saute the crabs for 3 minutes on each side, or until they are just cooked through. Arrange soft shell crabs on individual plates. Spoon salsa over crabs and sprinkle with pine nuts. This recipe yields 4 servings.
