Remove the mussels from their shells directly into the broth to create a flavour-enhanced soup base or sauce! They can also be served cold as an aperitif, placed on a half shell and decorated with various garnishes.

Ingredients

  • 2.7 kg (6 pounds) fresh, washed mussels
  • 30 ml (2 tablespoons) olive oil
  • 2 cloves of garlic, chopped
  • 3 green onions, sliced, white and green parts separated
  • 150 g dried chorizo sausage, diced
  • 1 jar of Rao’s Arrabbiata Sauce
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Salt to taste

Directions

  • In a large pot, sauté the chorizo in olive oil over medium heat until lightly browned.
  • Add the garlic and white part of the green onion, and cook for about 1 minute.
  • Pour Rao’s Arrabbiata Sauce into the pot.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Bring the sauce to a boil and add the washed mussels. Coat the mussels with the sauce by stirring them. Cover the pot and cook until the mussels open completely, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Discard any mussels that do not open.
  • Garnish the mussels with the green part of the green onion and serve hot, accompanied by fries, fresh bread, or simply on a bed of pasta.
