Prepare the Crab
Using a grill or coal pit, preheat the coals until they are hot and ashy. Place the king crab legs directly on the coals and roast for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally.

Baste the Crab
During the last few minutes of roasting, brush the soy-lime glaze over the crab legs to coat them evenly. Allow the glaze to caramelize slightly.

Serve
Remove the crab legs from the coals and place them on a serving platter. Garnish with chopped green onions and cilantro before serving.
