Citrus Butter

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Seafood

    Clean and rinse the prawns, scallops, king crab legs, and clams under cold water. Pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Make the Citrus Butter

    In a saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Stir in the lemon juice, orange juice, minced garlic, and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in chopped parsley.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Dish

    In a large toban (Japanese clay cooking pot) or a grill-safe dish, arrange the prawns, scallops, king crab, and clams. Pour the citrus butter over the seafood.

  4. 4

    Cook

    Place the toban over medium heat or on a grill. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and the clams have opened.
