Ingredients

Mussels and Clams

Preparation

Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Shellfish

Rinse the mussels and clams under cold water to remove any grit. Discard any open shells that do not close when tapped.

2. Sauté Aromatics

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and diced shallots, and sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 3-5 minutes.

3. Add Wine and Seasonings

Pour in the white wine, and stir in the red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer.

4. Cook the Shellfish

Add the cleaned mussels and clams to the pot. Cover and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the shells open. Discard any that do not open.

5. Finish and Serve

Remove from heat, and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. Serve hot with crusty bread for dipping.
