Ingredients:
  • 2 pounds crab legs, thawed if frozen
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chili flakes (adjust to taste for desired spice level)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Lemon wedges, for serving
Instructions:
  1. Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Place the crab legs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil, arranging them in a single layer.
  3. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the minced garlic and chili flakes. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the garlic is fragrant and slightly golden.
  4. Pour the spicy garlic butter mixture evenly over the crab legs on the baking sheet.
  5. Season the crab legs with salt and black pepper to taste, then sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for added freshness.
  6. Cover the baking sheet with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crab legs are heated through.
