Alaska King Crab Legs

I learned to make Crab Legs with a more ingredients than usual when I lived in Alaska

​

Start with the freshest Alaska King Crab legs (frozen if not available in your area and thaw appropriately). Place them on a Bed of Ice NOT in water.  Cut down the shell of a leg lengthwise break it open to so you expose the meat. 

​

• Fill a large pot with 1/2 cup Coconut Milk and continue to fill the rest of the pot with water

• 2 teaspoons of Sugar

• 1 Tablespoon of Salt

• 3 Tablespoons of Old Bay Seasoning (optional)

• Bring the water to a boil

• Slowly add the crab legs

• Boil between 4-5 minutes

​

Remove the Crab legs drain excess water and sprinkle with your favorite seasoning.

We use clarified butter, make with Kerrygold pure Irish butter, garlic, and a pinch of salt.  Drizzle with a fresh cut lemon
