👨🍳 Instructions
- If frozen, thaw King Crab legs in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water for 30 minutes. Ensure they are fully defrosted before cooking.
- Fill a large pot with 1-2 inches of water, add a steamer basket, and bring to a rolling boil. Carefully place the crab legs into the steamer basket.
- Cover the pot tightly and steam for 5-7 minutes for thawed crab legs, or 8-10 minutes if cooking from partially frozen, until they are thoroughly heated through and fragrant.
- While the crab is steaming, gently melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave. Serve the hot King Crab legs immediately with the melted butter for dipping.
