- Pour in 1 cup of water and add 1 teaspoon of chicken stock to create a slightly salty sauce.
- Add the cooked pasta and crab meat to the pan, tossing and simmering until the sauce is absorbed into the pasta.

Cooking tips 💡
- Crab body meat tends to break apart easily during cooking. For a cleaner presentation, consider using whole crab leg meat.
- Adding garlic in two batches—first to sauté until golden, then more fresh garlic—enhances both the nutty and pungent garlic notes.
