1
Prepare the Ingredients
Rinse the mussels or clams under cold water to remove any sand or debris. Discard any that are open and do not close when tapped.
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
Add Wine and Mussels/Clams
Pour in the white wine and bring it to a simmer. Add the cleaned mussels or clams, cover the pot, and let them steam for about 5-7 minutes until they open up.
4
Finish with Parsley
Once the mussels or clams have opened, remove the pot from heat. Stir in the chopped parsley, season with salt and black pepper to taste, and serve immediately.
