Preparation of Crab Claws

    Prepare the Crab Claws

    If using frozen crab claws, thaw them overnight in the refrigerator. If they are fresh, simply rinse them under cold water and pat dry.

  2. 2

    Arrange the Crab Claws

    On a large serving platter, arrange the crab claws in a circular pattern or however you prefer. Ensure they are evenly spaced for presentation.

  3. 3

    Add Lemon and Parsley

    Garnish the platter with lemon wedges and sprinkle fresh parsley over the crab claws for added color and aroma.

Dipping Sauce Preparation

  1. 4

    Combine the Sauce Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, mix together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  2. 5

    Serve the Sauce

    Transfer the dipping sauce into a small bowl and place it in the center of the crab claw platter for easy access.
