Title: Spanish Style Mussels With Olives
Ingredients:
4 Servings
-------------------
2 Tsp olive oil
1 cup onion, Chopped
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 pinch red pepper flakes, Dried
3 LB mussels, scrubbed, debearded
1/4 cup medium-dry (or dry sherry)
1 cup tomato, Diced
1/2 cup green olives, Chopped
Juice of 1 lemon
2 Tbl parsley, Chopped
Method of Preparation:
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until aromatic and slightly tender, stirring often, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the red pepper flakes, then add the mussels, stirring so they are evenly coated in the vegetable mixture. Add the sherry, cover the pan and steam until the mussels just begin to open, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the tomato, olives, lemon juice and parsley and gently stir just to mix. Spoon the mussels onto small individual plates, drizzle the cooking liquids over and serve. This recipe yields 4 servings. Comments: This is a typical "tapas" style Spanish dish, meant to be served as one of many small plates for a casual, festive meal. It makes a great appetizer or could make a light dinner for 2 with a crisp salad alongside. Serve these mussels with crusty bread for soaking up the tasty cooking juices.
