Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Clean the Seafood

    Rinse the black mussels under cold water to remove any sand or debris. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped. For the shrimp, ensure they are peeled and deveined. Rinse the snow crab legs under cold water to clean.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Garlic and Lemon

    Mince the garlic cloves finely. Cut the lemon in half; one half will be juiced, and the other half will be cut into wedges for serving.

  3. 3

    Chop the Parsley

    Finely chop the fresh parsley and set aside for garnish.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  2. 5

    Add the Seafood

    Add the cleaned black mussels, shrimp, and snow crab legs to the pot. Stir gently to coat the seafood with the garlic butter.

  3. 6

    Season and Cook

    Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the seafood. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over the mixture. Cover the pot and let cook for about 5-7 minutes until the mussels open and the shrimp turn pink. Discard any mussels that do not open.

  4. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the pot from heat. Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the seafood. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
