Description

crab legs

Here's a simple recipe for crab legs with a delicious garlic butter sauce, ready in just 20 minutes! I found snow crab legs on sale at the market and wanted to try something different from the usual steamed, boiled, or grilled options. So, I combined a few ingredients to create this amazing dish, which would also pair perfectly with shrimp.

Ingredients

1 ½ teaspoons of dried parsley
¼ teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon of salt
1 pound of Snow Crab clusters, thawed if needed
¼ cup of butter
1 minced garlic clove

Instructions

Make a lengthwise slit in the shell of each crab piece.

In a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes until it becomes translucent

Stir in the parsley, pepper, and salt, and heat the mixture until it begins to bubble.

Place the crab legs in the skillet and toss them in the butter mixture, allowing them to simmer for 5 to 6 minutes until fully heated through. Serve hot and enjoy!
