Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crab

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the king crab legs and cook for about 5-7 minutes until heated through. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the porterhouse steaks with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper on both sides. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Steak

    Preheat a grill or skillet over high heat. Cook the porterhouse steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness. Add butter on top of the steaks during the last minute of cooking.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Butter Sauce

    In a small saucepan, melt the remaining butter and mix in lemon juice and chopped parsley. Stir well and remove from heat.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Slice the porterhouse steaks and serve alongside the king crab legs. Drizzle the butter sauce over both the steak and crab. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
