BAKED KING CRAB
BAKED KING CRAB
-
2 lbs king crab legs
-
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature and softened
-
1 teaspoon Sriracha
-
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
-
1/2 tablespoon sugar
-
3 dashes smoked paprika and more for dusting
-
1 tablespoon chopped parsley and/or chives
DIRECTIONS
-
Preheat air fryer oven to 400F.
-
Cut the king crab legs into shorter segments using a pair of scissors. Cut the crab leg segments lengthwise to expose the crab meat. Alternatively, you can also cut the top part of the shell to expose the crab meat.
-
Arrange the king crab legs in the airflow rack and bake for 20 minutes. In the meantime, make the Sriracha Lemon Butter by whipping the softened butter with a whisk. Add the Sriracha, lemon juice and sugar, whisk to combine well. Set aside.
-
As soon as the crab is out of the air fryer oven, spoon the butter over the crab meat. Dust with more smoked paprika and garnish with chopped parsley and/or chives. Serve immediately.
