How to Cook Crab Legs Perfectly

* 1 pound crab legs, thawed if frozen

* 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning

* 1 tablespoon kosher salt

* 1/2 cup water

* 1 lemon, cut into wedges

Instructions

1. In a large pot, bring the water, Old Bay seasoning, and salt to a boil.

2. Add the crab legs and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the crab legs are heated through and the meat is opaque.

3. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.

Tips

* To thaw frozen crab legs quickly, place them in a colander and run cold water over them for 5-10 minutes.

* Be careful not to overcook the crab legs, as they will become tough. This method should only take a few minutes per side (total).

* Crab legs are best when served hot, but they can also be served cold.

* If you are serving crab legs cold, be sure to chill them thoroughly before serving.

* Crab legs can be paired with a variety of dipping sauces, such as melted butter, tartar sauce, or cocktail sauce.
