03 — Method

  1. Rinse the frog legs in cold water, pat dry in a clean towel and season all over with salt and pepper.
  2. Dredge lightly in flour in a shallow dish, tapping off the excess.
  3. Heat half the unsalted butter in the large skillet over high heat until foaming and lightly nut-brown.
  4. Sear the frog legs 5 min, turning halfway, so they brown evenly but stay tender.
  5. Add the chopped garlic and parsley with the rest of the butter, cook 1 min, then deglaze with the dry white wine.
  6. Reduce 2 min, adjust the seasoning and serve the frog legs hot right away with the garlic-parsley butter.
