Hot Buttered Crab Claws
This recipe is so quick to make, you should make it at the last minute and serve it immediately. In other words, before you even begin to cook, get out plates and napkins, and make a drink!
- 1 stick butter
- 2 scallions, finely sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 T. Worcestershire sauce
- 2 dashes hot sauce
- Juice of one lemon or two limes
- 1 lb. Gulf crab claws, drained if necessary
- Fresh ground black pepper
- 1 T. Chopped fresh parsley
- Bread for serving
Melt the butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Add the scallions and cook for two minutes. Add garlic and cook for another minute. Add Worcestershire, hot sauce, and lemon or lime juice. Stir to combine. Add crab claws and toss with the sauce just until they are hot. Sprinkle with parsley and black pepper.
Serve in individual bowls or just put the skillet in the middle of the table. But either way, make sure there is plenty of crusty bread to sop up the sauce.
