Steamed Mussels in Tomato Broth
Ingredients
Preparation
Heat olive oil and butter in the bottom of a large pot. Add onion, garlic, and crushed red pepper. Cook over medium heat until soft, about 2 minutes. Add cherry tomatoes, wine, and seafood stock. Stir to combine and season with salt and pepper. Bring the broth to a simmer.
Place mussels in a steamer basket or a colander over the top of the pot. Steam mussels for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from pot and set aside.
Add fettuccine to the broth and cook for 5 minutes.
Plate the fettuccine, topping it with mussels, extra broth, fresh chopped parsley, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve with crusty bread for dipping in the extra broth.
The vibrant zest of Borgatti’s Lemon Pepper Fettuccine is perfectly paired with succulent steamed mussels nestled in a rich cherry tomato broth. This dish captures the essence of Italian coastal cuisine with its lively flavor palette. Each strand of our Lemon Pepper Fettuccine is infused with bright lemon and bold pepper, creating a tantalizing base that complements the juicy, ocean-fresh mussels. The cherry tomato broth, simmered to perfection, adds a delightful sweetness and tang, enriching the mussels with every spoonful.
