Ingredients

  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 2 large egg whites 8 soft-shell crabs, (about 2 1/2 pounds) 6 tablespoons olive oil 1 bunch arugula, (about 6 ounces), washed and tough stems removed Lemon-Red Pepper Confit

Directions

Combine cornmeal, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl or plate.

Whisk egg whites in a small bowl until just frothy. Dip crabs into egg whites to coat. Dredge them in the seasoned cornmeal, shake off excess, and set aside.

Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; arrange 4 crabs on their bellies in the pan. Cook until golden and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer crabs to a plate and add 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil to pan. Return crabs to pan, on their backs, and cook until crisp, about 5 minutes more. Remove crabs from skillet and keep warm on a baking sheet in a 300 degrees oven. Repeat with the remaining olive oil and crabs.

Divide arugula among four plates. Arrange 2 crabs over each plate of arugula, spoon confit over or around crabs, and serve.
