Step 1
In a large pot, warm the 4 cups crab bisque over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it begins to simmer, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add the 0.5 cup heavy cream and 0.5 teaspoon sea salt, stirring to combine. Let it heat through for another 3 minutes until hot and slightly thickened.
Step 3
While the soup heats, steam the 1 pound snow crab legs in a steamer basket over boiling water for 4-5 minutes until heated through and fragrant.
Step 4
Crack the crab legs and remove the meat. Divide the bisque into bowls, top with the crab meat, and sprinkle with the 2 tablespoons chopped parsley. Serve hot.
