Baked Crab Legs in a Creamy Butter Sauce


Ingredients:
1 pound crab legs (fresh or frozen, thawed)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning (or more, to taste)
👩‍🍳 Instructions:
Preheat Oven
Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare Butter Sauce
In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, lemon juice, garlic, parsley, and Old Bay seasoning until well combined.
Arrange Crab Legs
Place crab legs in a baking dish or on a foil-lined baking sheet. Brush generously with the butter sauce, making sure to coat them well.
Bake
Cover the dish loosely with foil and bake for 20–25 minutes, until the crab legs are heated through and the sauce is bubbling.
Serve
Remove from oven, spoon some of the buttery sauce over the crab legs, and serve immediately with extra lemon wedges and warm crusty bread for dipping.
👉 Optional: For a golden finish, remove the foil in the last 5 minutes and broil briefly.
