I haven't tried this recipe yet, but it sounds awfully good and it seems like a lot less work than frying.
Ingredients:
12 soft shelled crabs, thawed
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon old bay seasoning (or cajun seasoning)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
12 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup melted butter
Directions:
1. Season the milk with the Old Bay, salt and pepper.
2. Soak the crabs in the seasoned milk for 15 minutes then drain.
3. Sprinkle each crab all over with 1 tablespoon flour.
4. Brush the bottom side of each crab with melted butter.
5. Broil, top side down, for 8 minutes.
6. Flip them over, brush the top side with butter and broil for about 7 more minutes or until golden brown.
7. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
