The Cuisineist kitchens have been hard at work, per our readers request to find a "good" recipe for King Crab Legs.
After putting this dish to the test in our kitchens , we highly recommend this easy , tasty recipe for you , are readers.
Ingredients :

1 lemon, cut into 8 slices
Chardonnay-Lemon-Herb Splash (recipe follows)

Directions :
Make the Chardonnay-Lemon-Herb Splash ahead and keep refrigerated. Bring it to room temperature and stir it well before serving.


Rinse frozen Alaska Crab legs under cold running water to remove any ice glaze; pat dry with paper towels. Discard towels. Cut crab legs into smaller sections with a large knife or clean kitchen scissors, if desired.

Place crab legs in steamer insert and place over boiling mixture. Cover pan tightly and cook for 6 to 8 minutes for frozen crab or 3 to 4 minutes for thawed crab, cooking just until crab is heated-through.
