Ingredients
- 4 lbs mussels
- 3 Tbsps butter
- 3 Tbsps olive oil.
- 1/2 cup shallots, chopped
- 6 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 medium tomatoes, seeded and diced
- 1/2 Tbsp dried thyme
- 1-1/4 cup white wine (I used Pinot Grigio)

Instructions
- Dump mussels into a large bowl and cover with cool water. Set aside.
- In a large heavy pot, heat butter and oil over medium heat. Cook shallots until translucent. About three minutes. Add garlic and cook just until fragrant. About another minute or two.
- Add tomatoes, thyme, white wine, broth, lemon juice, salt, red pepper and black pepper. Turn up heat to medium high and allow to come to a boil.
- Add mussels and cover. Cook for eight to ten minutes. Shake pan every now and again to move mussels around.
- Pour into bowl and garnish with parsley and lemon zest. Serve with a loaf of crusty bread to sop up garlic wine sauce.
Notes
- This is a great recipe for mussels fans.
