Step-by-Step Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse the crab legs and pat them dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, toss the crab legs with 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper until they are evenly coated.
2
Place the crab legs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until they are cooked through and flaky.
3
While the crab legs are roasting, prepare the roasted garlic sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the garlic cloves and 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is tender and lightly caramelized.
4
Once the garlic is tender, stir in the lemon juice and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes or until the sauce is heated through.
5
To serve, place the roasted crab legs on a plate and drizzle the roasted garlic sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges for added flavor and presentation.
