Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Trim the ends off the asparagus and blanch them in boiling salted water for about 2-3 minutes until bright green and tender. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the King Crab

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the king crab legs and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until heated through. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika.

  3. 3

    Poach the Eggs

    In a separate saucepan, bring water to a gentle simmer. Crack an egg into a small bowl and gently slide it into the simmering water. Repeat with the second egg. Poach for about 3-4 minutes or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    On each plate, place a portion of the crab legs, a few asparagus spears, and top with a poached egg. Drizzle with hollandaise sauce and garnish with lemon wedges.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Sprinkle with additional paprika and serve immediately while warm.
