Plump mussels steamed to perfection and drizzled with a vibrant garlic-herb olive oil sauce, finished with fresh parsley and lemon.

Ingredients


Directions

  1. Rinse mussels under cold water, discarding any that are cracked or won’t close when tapped.
  2. In a large pot, heat Olive Oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. Pour in white wine and bring to a simmer.
  4. Add mussels, cover, and steam for 5–7 minutes, shaking the pot occasionally, until mussels open. Discard any that remain closed.
  5. Remove mussels with a slotted spoon and place on a serving platter.
  6. Stir parsley, lemon zest, and lemon juice into the pot. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
  7. Drizzle sauce over mussels, garnish with extra parsley, and serve with lemon wedges and crusty bread for dipping.
