  • 1 tsp olive oil

  • 1 cured chorizo sausage, cut into small cubes, about 1 cup

  • 1 1/2 cups dry white wine

  • 2 kg mussels

Instructions

  • Heat a large pot over medium-high. Add oil, then chorizo. Cook chorizo until brown, 2 to 3 min.

  • Add wine and boil 1 min. Stir in mussels. Cook, covered, until mussels have opened, 8 to 10 min. Discard any closed mussels. Serve mussels and broth in warmed bowls.


Prep tip

Scrub mussels under cold running water. Remove any net-like little 'beards.' Before cooking, discard any mussels that are open. After cooking, if any mussels remain closed, discard those as well.
