Steamed Mussels (Moules)

camicami

ingredients

  • 4-5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 4-5 lbs. mussels, cleaned and de-bearded
  • 1 cup white wine
  • couple pinches of pepper
  • couple pinches of salt

directions

  • 1

    Heat a medium sauce pan over medium-high heat. Add oil. Wait until oil starts to smoke and add the onions. Sauté for 3-4 minutes. Add garlic, mussels, wine, parsley, salt and pepper. Cover pan immediately.

  • 2

    Give pan a good shake, and let steam for about 2 minutes. Check to see if the mussels have opened; if not, let steam for another minute.

  • 3

    If some mussels have not opened, discard them. Don’t cook any longer then 3 minutes because mussels are very easy to overcook and they become rubbery.

  • 4

    Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
