Baked Crab Legs in Butter Sauce

*Ingredients:

1 lb (453.59g) king crab legs

4 tablespoons (56g) unsalted butter , melted

3 cloves garlic , minced (about 1 tablespoon garlic)

1-2 teaspoons (4g-8g) Creole seasoning

½ tablespoon (7.5ml) lemon juice

1 tablespoon (3g) chopped chives or parsley

lemon wedges to serve

*Instructions:

Thaw crabs legs in the refrigerator overnight or for faster results place crabs under cold running water for a few minutes.

Preheat oven to 375 F.

When ready to cook, cut the crab legs into half so the flesh of the crab is visible. Skip the knife and use kitchen shears or scissors to do so. You’ll thank me later.

Place crab legs in an oven-safe pan or on a baking sheet.

Add butter, garlic, Creole seasoning in a small bowl. Microwave for about a minute. Remove and add lemon juice. Mix well.

Brush crab with butter mixture all over the crab legs – reserve any excess for serving.

Place the crab legs in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes, or until the crab legs are heated through. Sprinkle with parsley or chives.

Serve immediately with the remaining sauce and/or lemon wedges for squeezing over meat.

Notes

One of the great things about this recipe, you are not trying to cut open hot crab legs with scissors, the prep is done before they are heated.

HUMBA RECIPE

Humba is a dish popular in the southern parts of the Philippines *INGREDIENTS: 2 pounds pork belly, sliced into large pieces 1 cup pineapple juice 1 large onion, chopped 5 cloves garlic, minced 2 tablespoons fermented black beans (tausi) 1/4 cup soy sauce 1/3 cup vinegar 1/4 cup brown sugar 2 pieces dried bay leaves 1 teaspon whole black peppercorns 1 piece star anise Dried banana blossoms (optional) *INSTRUCTIONS: Place all ingredients in a pot. Cook until meat is tender, lowering heat to simmer. Remove scum that rises to the top. (Depending on your preference you can cook until dry and then brown the meat in its own rendered fat). My family likes plenty adobo sauce so I did not completely reduce the liquid. I transferred the pork pieces in an oven-safe dish and browned them in the oven for 20 minutes or you can brown them in a frying pan. Make sure to toast the skin side down the pan. I then returned the meat to the sauce. Serve and enjoy!
