Every time i see it on a restaurant menu, it is either fried or sauteed in butter. Have any of you had it any other way that you can recommend?

I'll probably pick some up this weekend and would like to try something different. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I've had it broiled but I just don't think it is really meant to be served that way. I think it's best fried to have as much crisp as possible.

But as for something perhaps a little different, you could always fry it in panko. I've had some panko fried soft shell crab at a few Japanese fusion type places and it's generally pretty good.

Grilled is fantastic, but the grates have to be super clean and oiled. If not, they will stick really hard.
