Baked Crab Legs in Butter Sauce

  Ingredients

 2 pounds of crab legs  

 1/2 cup of unsalted butter  

 2 cloves of garlic, minced  

 1 tablespoon of lemon juice  

 Salt and pepper to taste  

 Chopped parsley for garnish  

 Directions

 1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

 2. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and let it cook for a minute or two, just until fragrant. Stir in the lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper to your liking.

 3. Arrange the crab legs in a baking dish, making sure they fit snugly. Pour that lovely butter sauce right over the top.

 4. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and pop it in the oven. Let it bake for 20 to 25 minutes, so those crab legs get nice and heated through.

 

 5. When it’s done, take the dish out of the oven and finish with a sprinkle of fresh chopped parsley. Serve right away, and enjoy every buttery bite.
