Mussel Pot Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Clean the Mussels

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

  2. 2

    Sauté Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped shallots. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant and translucent.

  3. 3

    Add Liquids

    Pour in the white wine and chicken broth, and bring the mixture 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, or until the mussels have opened. Discard any mussels that remain closed.

  5. 5

    Finish the Dish

    Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Serve hot.
