Mussels Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Preparing the Mussels

    Rinse the mussels under cold water, scrubbing the shells to remove any debris. Remove beards and discard any that are open or damaged.

  2. 2

    Sautéing Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped shallots, and sauté until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cooking the Mussels

    Add the cleaned mussels to the pot, pour in the white wine, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover and steam for about 5-7 minutes, or until all mussels have opened.

  4. 4

    Finishing Touch

    Remove from heat, stir in chopped parsley, and serve immediately with lemon wedges.
