Yummy Yummy Crab Legs
When I was in college, my best friend and I would wait until the local super market had snow crab legs on sale for $4.99 a pound then we would have a seafood feast. We would purchase 2 lbs., take them back to the dorm kitchen and microwave them.
Yes, I said microwave.
It would only take a couple of minutes for the crab to be cooked to perfection and since we didn’t keep stock pots in our dorm rooms this was the perfect way for us to get our seafood fix with a minimal amout of mess.
Well fast forward a few years and now that I am out of college I still enjoy eating crab legs. Although these days I prefer pre-cut King Crab legs since you get more meat for the same amount of work.
But whether you prefer Snow or King crab legs you also need melted butter to dip them in…this is super easy to make since you just microwave the needed amount of butter and add a few dashes of Old Bay Seasoning to it for flavor. I also like to sprinkle a little Old Bay Seasoning on top of the crab before putting it into the microwave to add additional flavor as well. You can garnish your plate with lemon for a burst of fresh flavor to squeeze on the crab meat once you pry it out of the shell. Now that’s good eating!
