For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a minced clove of garlic to the melted butter. Don't overbake the crab legs, as this can dry out the meat. They are already pre-cooked, so you're just warming them through. Serve with your favorite seafood side dishes, such as coleslaw, roasted vegetables, or crusty bread for soaking up the buttery goodness.
