I'm not a huge fan of seafood, but I really enjoyed this chili crab. The sauce was flavorful and the crab was cooked perfectly.

The chili crab was delicious, but the sauce was a bit too thick for my liking. I would recommend thinning it out with a little bit of water or broth.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less chili peppers if you don't like spicy food.
