Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 ½ pounds Alaskan king crab legs with shell
6 ears fresh corn
1 ½ cups butter
3 teaspoons minced garlic
⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning TM, or to taste

Steps:

  • In a very large stock pot, bring a large amount of water to boil. Place crab legs and corn in the pot of boiling water. Boil until the corn is tender, and the crab legs are opaque and flaky. The crab may finish cooking before the corn, check the corn and crab every 5 minutes to see if they are finished cooking. When finished cooking, drain well. Cut a slit into each of the crab leg shells to make it easier for your guests to get to the meat.
  • In a large saucepan, melt butter or margarine, garlic, red pepper, and Old Bay ™ seasoning. Stir in the crab and corn, and saute them for 5 to 10 minutes.

I would not recommend this recipe. The crab legs were tough and the garlic butter sauce was too oily. I ended up throwing most of it away.

This recipe was a disaster! The crab legs were overcooked and the garlic butter sauce was way too salty. I had to throw the whole thing out.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The crab legs were cooked well, but the garlic butter sauce lacked flavor. I ended up adding some extra garlic and butter to the sauce, which helped a bit.

This recipe was a bit too garlicky for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The crab legs were cooked perfectly though and the sauce was still very flavorful.
