👨🍳 Instructions
- Rinse the soft-shell crabs under cold water and pat them dry; remove any remaining gills or spongy material.
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, a squeeze of lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Brush the crabs generously with the seasoned olive oil mixture on both sides.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Place the crabs directly on the hot grill, cooking for 3-4 minutes per side until they turn golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Serve immediately with extra lemon wedges and a sprinkle of fresh chopped parsley for garnish.
