Mussels or Clams and Seasonings

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Rinse the mussels or clams under cold water, scrubbing the shells to remove any dirt or debris. Discard any that are open and do not close when tapped.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large skillet or pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Cook the Shellfish

    Add the mussels or clams to the skillet, followed by the white wine, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Steam and Serve

    Cover the skillet and let the seafood steam for about 5-7 minutes until the shells open. Discard any that remain closed. Add the chopped parsley, give it a gentle stir, and serve immediately.
