Baked Crab Legs in Butter
Instructions:
  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare the Crab Legs: If the crab legs are frozen, thaw them in the refrigerator or under cold running water. Pat them dry with paper towels.
  3. Make the Butter Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice, paprika, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Arrange in a Baking Dish: Place the crab legs in a baking dish, and pour the butter sauce evenly over them. Use a brush or spoon to ensure the sauce coats the legs well.
  5. Bake the Crab Legs: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the crab legs are heated through and the butter sauce is bubbling.
  6. Serve: Remove from the oven and carefully remove the foil. Serve the crab legs hot, drizzled with the remaining butter sauce from the baking dish. Garnish with lemon wedges.
