1
Clean the Mussels
Rinse the green lipped mussels under cold running water, scrubbing the shells with a brush to remove any debris or barnacles. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.
2
Prepare the Seasoning
In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.

3
Cook the Mussels
In a large pot or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the mussels and the marinade. Stir to coat the mussels evenly with the seasoning.
4
Steam the Mussels
Cover the pot or skillet with a lid and let the mussels steam for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels are opened. Discard any mussels that remain closed after cooking.

5
Plate the Mussels
Carefully transfer the cooked mussels to a serving dish. Drizzle with any remaining marinade and garnish with additional chopped parsley, if desired.
6
Enjoy
Serve the mussels warm as an appetizer or main dish, paired with crusty bread or over a bed of pasta.
