Snow Crab Pasta with Lemon Butter Sauce

Snow Crab Pasta with Lemon Butter Sauce

The wild snow crab is rinsed, patted dry and laid over the pasta at the end rather than cooked into the sauce. Underneath, linguine is tossed in lemon butter and Parmesan, and toasted garlic bread crumbs go over the top for crunch. Prep and cooking together come to about twenty minutes, and it serves two.
