Method
Preparation
Prepare the Seafood
Rinse the shrimp, mussels, calamari, and crab legs under cold water to remove any debris. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Make the Marinade
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Marinate the Seafood
Add the shrimp, mussels, and calamari to the marinade. Toss to coat evenly and let it sit for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Prepare the Crab Legs
If using frozen crab legs, make sure they are thawed. You can steam them for 5-7 minutes or serve them cold.
Cooking
Cook the Seafood
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp, mussels, and calamari to the skillet. Cook until shrimp are pink and mussels open, about 5-7 minutes.
Arrange on Platter
Once cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Arrange the cooked seafood and crab legs on a large serving platter.
