Cooking Instructions

step 1

Rinse and clean the Whole Crabs (4). Cut the crab in half or quarters, depending on the size, with the legs still attached.

step 2

In a heavy bottom pot (like a Dutch oven), add 3-counts of Olive Oil (as needed) and heat to medium heat. Add the Garlic (3 cloves) and cook until fragrant, about 45 seconds.

step 3

Add the crab, toss in the Olive Oil (as needed) and the garlic, and sauté for 4 - 5 minutes.

step 4

Add the Pasta Sauce (2 jars). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, and allow to simmer for 45 minutes. Stir occasionally and maintain heat to prevent burning.

step 5

Just as the sauce has thickened and all of the flavors have incorporated, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Boil the Spaghetti (8 oz) according to package directions.

step 6

Serve the sauce over a bowl of pasta. Be sure to supply plenty of napkins, knives to crack open the crab legs, and a bowl to discard shells. Serve and enjoy!
