1
Prepare the Mussels
Rinse the mussels under cold water, scrubbing the shells to remove any dirt. Discard any that are open and do not close when tapped.
2
Heat the Oil
In a large pot over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
3
Add White Wine and Seasonings
Pour in the white wine, add salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer.
4
Cook the Mussels and Calamari
Add the cleaned mussels and sliced calamari to the pot. Cover and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the mussels open and the calamari is tender.
5
Garnish and Serve
Once cooked, remove from heat, stir in chopped parsley, and serve immediately with crusty bread.
