Instructions:

  1. Preparation:
    • Fill a large stockpot with water, leaving enough room to add the ingredients later. Add the Old Bay seasoning, Cajun seasoning, bay leaves, and a pinch of salt to the water. Bring to a rolling boil.
  2. Cooking the Corn and Potatoes:
    • Add the potatoes to the boiling water and cook for about 10 minutes. Then add the corn and cook for another 5 minutes, or until both the potatoes and corn are tender. Remove the corn and potatoes with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  3. Cooking the Crab Legs:
    • Reduce the heat to a simmer. Add the crab legs to the pot and cover with a lid. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until heated through. Remove the crab legs and set aside.
  4. Cooking the Sausage and Aromatics:
    • In a separate skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sausage, onions, and garlic. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the sausage is browned and the onions are translucent.
  5. Combining Ingredients:
    • In the same skillet, add the cooked potatoes and corn. Toss with the sausage mixture. Add butter and squeeze the juice of two lemons over the mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until everything is well combined and heated through.
  6. Serving:
    • Arrange the crab legs on a large platter. Surround them with the corn, potatoes, and sausage mixture. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges. Enjoy your Crab Boil Platter with Extra Corn!
