Ingredients
4 medium soft-shell crabs
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 soft buns, such as brioche, croissant, or other good-quality soft dinner bun
1 sliced tomato
1/2 cup alfalfa sprouts
2 avocados, peeled, pitted and cut into 1/4-inch slices
Several leaves of red-leaf lettuce
1/2 cup mayonnaise
