Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crabs

    Rinse the soft-shell crabs under cold water and pat dry. Season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Dredge the Crabs

    In a shallow dish, combine flour, cornmeal, salt, and black pepper. Dredge each crab in the mixture, shaking off excess.

  3. 3

    Fry the Crabs

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry crabs for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

    Toast the Brioche

    In the same skillet, toast brioche slices until golden brown on both sides.

  5. 5

    Fry the Eggs

    In a separate small pan, fry the eggs sunny-side up or to your preference.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread tarragon aioli on each slice of toasted brioche. Layer lettuce, sliced tomato, fried soft-shell crab, and top with a fried egg.
