Shellfish Platter Ingredients
Method
Preparation Directions
Prepare the Shellfish
Rinse the fresh oysters and mussels under cold water to remove any sand or debris.
Cook the Shrimp
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes or until they turn pink. Drain and cool under cold water.
Prepare the King Crab Legs
If using frozen crab legs, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight. Steam or boil them for about 5-7 minutes until heated through.
Arrange the Platter
On a large platter, arrange the oysters, shrimp, crab legs, and mussels. Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh parsley.
