1
Prepare the Mussels
Rinse the mussels under cold water, scrub the shells, and remove any beards. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.
2
Sauté Garlic
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
3
Add Liquids
Pour in the dry white wine and chicken broth, and bring the mixture to a simmer.
4
Cook Mussels
Add the cleaned mussels to the pot, cover, and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the mussels have opened. Discard any mussels that have not opened.
5
Season and Serve
Stir in chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Serve immediately with crusty bread to soak up the broth.
