Steamed Crab Legs


We are having our fair share of crab legs this holiday season! We spent the other day with friends and ended the evening with yummy crab legs. Crab is so delicious and totally worth it.

Ingredients:
4 lb frozen crab legs
4 cups water
1/2 lemon, quartered and squeezed
2 to 3 bay leaves
1 tbsp Old Bay
1 1/2 sticks butter

Directions:
Preheat oven to 450. In a large aluminum baking dish (like the kind you cook a turkey in) or in a giant roasting pan add 4 cups water. Add 2 to 3 bay leaves and lemon. Add your crab legs one by one and then gently sprinkle with a hint of Old Bay. Cover in foil. Cook for 35 to 40 minutes. (For 2 lbs of crab legs you can cook for about 20 minutes). 1 pound is about 2 to 3 clusters. Serve with melted butter. Enjoy!!!
