Crab Claws Provencale Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by gathering all the ingredients. Mince the garlic and chop the parsley.

  2. 2

    Melt the Butter

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Garlic

    Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned.

  4. 4

    Add the Crab Claws

    Gently add the peeled Louisiana crab claws to the skillet and stir to combine.

  5. 5

    Add Pernod

    Pour in the Pernod and season with salt and black pepper. Stir gently to coat the crab claws.

  6. 6

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the crab claws to heat through.

  7. 7

    Finish with Parsley

    Remove from heat and stir in the chopped fresh parsley before serving.
