Garlicky Mussels in a Rich Lemon, Fresh Herb, Butter Sauce image

Moules marinières a classic French/Belgian dish, wonderful served with frites and a dollop of mayonnaise. Just bought 2 pounds of mussels. Tossed this together almost as fast as we ate it! Lots of fresh herbs and garlic. Make sure you have some wonderful bread to soak up the sauce! Or serve over pasta.

These garlicky mussels were a hit! The lemon-herb butter sauce was so flavorful and really brought out the natural sweetness of the mussels. I served them with a side of crusty bread to soak up all that delicious sauce. Definitely a keeper!
