Salsa Kiss presents:
"Grilled Soft-Shell Crabs with Chive-Buttermilk Aioli"
Serves 8.
Ingredients:
- 8 fresh whale or jumbo-size live soft-shell crabs
Ingredients: "Chive-buttermilk Aioli" (Makes 1 ¼ cups)
- 1 cup high-quality mayonnaise
- 1 clove roasted garlic
- 1/4 buttermilk
- ½ cup snipped fresh chives
Ingredients: "Basting Butter" (modified)
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/8 teaspoon hot red chile powder
- ½ cup "BBQ Kiss Barbecue Sauce"
To clean the crab: You can ask your fishmonger to clean the crabs for you if you are using them soon, or clean
them yourself after you take them home. To clean the crabs yourself, use kitchen shears to cut off the front part of the
crab just behind the eyes, then lift up the paper-thin top shell and cut away and discard the gills on both sides of the
crab. Turn the crab over and cut off and discard the apron (tail flap). Do not cut into the body of the crab as you
will lose all the natural juices while cooking.
To prepare the Aioli: Combine the mayonnaise, garlic, and buttermilk in a blender and mix well. Fold in the
chives. Refrigerate until ready to use.
To prepare the Crabs: Combine the ingredients for the basting butter and set aside. Heat a barbecue grill to
medium-hot. The heat should be low enough for you to hold your hand close to the grill surface and count slowly to three.
If you cannot do this, the grill is too hot and will burn the crab on the outside before it’s cooked inside. Grill the
crabs, basting often with the butter, for about 6 minutes on each side. Serve garnished with the Aioli.
