Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mussels

    Rinse the green mussels under cold water to remove any sand or debris. Scrub the shells with a brush if necessary and remove any beards (the fibrous threads attached to the shells).

  2. 2

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

  3. 3

    Cook the Mussels

    Add the cleaned mussels to the pot, followed by the white wine, salt, and black pepper. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the mussels open up. Discard any mussels that do not open.

  4. 4

    Finish the Dish

    Once the mussels are cooked, remove them from heat. Stir in the fresh parsley and lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Transfer the mussels to a serving bowl, pouring the garlic butter sauce over them. Serve hot with crusty bread for dipping.
