Ingredient Notes
Snow Crab Legs: This recipe uses about 1 pound (2 clusters). King crab or Dungeness crab legs can also be used—adjust the cooking time slightly as king crab legs are larger.
Salted Butter: Melted butter is perfect for dipping. If you prefer unsalted butter, you can add a pinch of salt for flavor.
Old Bay Seasoning: A seafood classic! If you don’t have Old Bay, try Cajun seasoning for a spicier kick.
Lemon: Fresh lemon wedges are a must for serving with crab legs. Slice them in half lengthwise and then into wedges.
