Soft Crabs Mia

Ingredients:
• 8 hotel soft crabs, cleaned
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1 1/2 cups white wine
• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 5 or 6 drops hot sauce
• 2 minced garlic cloves

Preparation Instructions:

Mix together all ingredients except crabs in a shallow baking dish. Add crabs and cover. Marinate for 1/2 hour. Place crabs on a hot grill. Cook for 15 minutes on each side, basting and turning often. To decrease cooking time, cover grill with a large lid to help circulate the heat evenly. Crabs are cooked when red, firm and slightly crisp, but still moist. Serves 4.
