March has rolled in like a lion. I actually heard someone use the expression “Hurricane Blizzard” for the weather last Friday. Crazy for sure! We are 3 months into 2018. Spring is quickly approaching. Summer is not far behind, right? Maybe you need something to remind you of hot summer nights and sandy summer vacations? How about some hot crabs!!
Obviously, Johnnies is the place to buy seafood, especially snow crab legs/clusters. For New Years Eve this year, we got a case of Snow Crab Legs. My family loves them, devours them, so buying them by the case is a smart idea and We’ve been eating snow crabs all winter!
My husband is usually responsible for steaming the crabs. But I found a new recipe on Pinterest for baked snow crabs. How can a recipe that uses butter, garlic and lemon juice not be a major win?
We all loved the flavor of these baked legs. The only noticeable difference was that it was harder to get the meat out of the baked crab legs. I did forget to thaw them before baking, maybe next time I should thaw first.
They might be a little messy too, with all of that butter and garlic, but I guess you won’t mind that part.
