Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mussels

    Rinse the green lipped mussels under cold running water to remove any sand or debris. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.

  2. 2

    Sauté Garlic

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, but not browned.

  3. 3

    Add Mussels

    Add the cleaned green lipped mussels to the pot with the sautéed garlic. Stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Deglaze with Wine

    Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Cover the pot and let the mussels cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until they have opened up completely.

  5. 5

    Season and Serve

    Once the mussels are cooked, remove the pot from heat. Stir in the lemon juice, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and black pepper. Serve the mussels in a bowl with the cooking broth.
