Garlic Butter Crab Legs

---

• 125 mL (½ cup) butter
• 3 to 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 15 mL (1 Tbsp) fresh parsley, finely chopped
• Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
• Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
• 2 large Dungeness crabs, cooked, cleaned and legs separated into clusters
• Lemon wedges, for serving

---

Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add the garlic, parsley, crushed red pepper flakes, sea salt and freshly cracked pepper.

Add the crab leg clusters and turn over to coat evenly. Cover tightly with a lid; steam the crab legs for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the lid; toss to thoroughly coat the crab leg clusters with the butter sauce. Place the clusters on a platter. Serve with the remaining garlic butter on the side and lemon wedges. Makes 2 servings.
