What do you do when you want to do something different than cooking them in a wine sauce and serving them as "Moules et Frites"?
Try this twist on taste featuring Olive the Best chipotle olive oil.
You will still using white wine but adding chopped cucumber, peppers, onions, lemon juice and capers.
A nice easy appetizer or meal add-on.
In a large pot bring to a simmer the dry white wine, add the mussels and cover, cook until mussels open (5 min); drain and let cool. Discard any unopened mussels.
Break off and discard the empty halves of the mussel shells and loosen the mussels from the other halves.
In a separate container toss the Persian cucumber, roasted red peppers, Ultra Premium EVOO, Chipotle Olive Oil, chopped red onion, parsley, lemon juice, chopped capers and season with salt and pepper.
Spoon over the mussels and serve.
