Crab Legs with Garlic Butter Sauce

1. Prepare the Crab Legs:

– If the crab legs are frozen, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight or run them under cold water for about 30 minutes.

2. Boil the Crab Legs:

– Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Add a pinch of salt.

– Once boiling, add the crab legs and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until heated through. If using pre-cooked crab legs, just heat them until warm.

– Remove the crab legs from the pot and let them drain.

3. Make the Garlic Butter Sauce:

– In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

– Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

– Stir in the lemon juice, paprika, and salt. Mix well and remove from heat.

4. Serve the Crab Legs:

– Arrange the crab legs on a serving platter.

– Drizzle the garlic butter sauce over the crab legs, or serve it on the side for dipping.

– Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
