If you are in a hurry, you can thaw them by running them under cold water for 20 minutes or until they are thawed. This method will impart some water into the crab legs, so be careful when you are cutting them open you will have crab water everywhere!
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan, add the garlic and cook until fragment. Remove from the heat but keep warm.
- Using a good pair of kitchen scissors, cut each side of the crab legs shell. With the shell still together, using a sharp knife cut the meat so that you have meat in both halves of the shell.
