Mussels Meunière Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mussels

    Rinse the mussels under cold water and remove any beards or debris.

  2. 2

    Sauté Aromatics

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic, and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Wine and Thyme

    Pour in the white wine and add the chopped thyme. Bring to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Cook the Mussels

    Add the cleaned mussels to the pot, cover with a lid, and cook for 5-7 minutes, shaking the pot occasionally, until the mussels have opened.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from heat and discard any mussels that did not open. Serve the mussels in bowls with the broth and toasted baguette slices on the side.
