Soft shell crab that is crispy and fresh lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles that are smashed between two soft toasted rolls are the perfect combination. If you're craving seafood, this Umami Girl Soft Shell Crab Sandwich is the way to go.

Ingredients:

  • 4 soft shell crabs, cleaned
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Hot sauce optional

Instructions:

In a shallow dish, mix together flour, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper

Dip each crab into the seasoned flour, then into the beaten eggs, and finally into the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat

Fry the crabs until golden brown and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side

Transfer the fried crabs to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil
