Mussels In Garlic Butter Sauce

Source : Italianfoodforever

This is a very easy way to cook mussels, creating a tasty sauce of butter, garlic and juice from the mussels.

:Serves 4

by Deborah Mele




Make sure you have lots of crusty bread on hand to sop up the juices!


2 Pounds Fresh, Cleaned Mussels

3-4 Cloves Garlic, Minced

1 Cup Fresh Parsley, Chopped

3/4 Stick Unsalted Butter At Room Temperature

Salt & Pepper


To Serve:

Crusty Italian Bread, Grilled


Combine the butter, garlic, parsley and seasonings in a small bowl. Mix together well. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F. Place the mussels in a large baking dish, and spoon the butter/garlic mixture on top. Cover the dish tightly with foil, and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the mussels open. Discard any that do not open. Serve in large bowls, dividing the sauce equally between each serving. Offer crusty bread to sop up the delicious juices.
