Step 8
Warm veal jus reduction over medium heat to a simmer.
Step 9
Add ½ C of the reserved chicken stock to a saucepan, bring to a boil.
Step 10
Add 4 tbsp of cold butter, one cube at a time, whisking until fully emulsified.
Step 11
Add the 4 largest pieces of king crab legs and poach in the butter for 3 minutes at a gentle simmer, remove from heat.
Step 12
Cut leeks in half along the length of the leek. Season the cut face with kosher salt. Sear in a sauté pan until golden brown.
