How to Make Granchio Alfredo Crab Alfredo
- Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Add 4 ounces of cream cheese and stir until softened.
- Stir in 1 cup of heavy cream and 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese.
- Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and stir well.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened slightly.
- Cook 1 pound of pasta (fettuccine or linguine recommended) according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- If using fresh crab legs, boil for 8-10 minutes until bright red. Crack open and remove meat. (If using pre-cooked crab meat, skip this step)
- Gently press the crab meat between paper towels to remove excess moisture.
