Time 1h

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds mussels
1 cup dry white wine
3 or 4 sprigs thyme
6 ounces whole onion or 5 ounces chopped ready-cut (1 1/3 cup)
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 large clove garlic
8 ounces fresh linguine
1/2 cup nonfat yogurt
3/4 cup reduced-fat ricotta
Several sprigs parsley, to yield 2 tablespoons chopped
1 1/2 ounces Parmigiano Reggiano (1/2 cup coarsely grated)
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Bring water to boil for pasta.
  • Rinse mussels in cold water. Scrub and remove beards. Discard any mussels whose shells are open.
  • Combine mussels with wine and thyme in pot, and cover. Steam mussels until they open, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Chop whole onion.
  • Heat oil in nonstick pan until it is very hot; reduce heat to medium high; add onion, and saute until it begins to soften.
  • Meanwhile, mince garlic, and add it to onion as it cooks.
  • When mussels are cooked, remove from liquid and set aside. Add 1 cup of the cooking liquid to the onion, and boil to reduce to 1/4 cup.
  • Shuck mussels, discarding any that are not open.
  • Cook linguine according to package directions.
  • Add mussels to onion mixture, and heat through.
  • Whisk yogurt and ricotta to make a smooth mixture. Wash, dry and chop parsley. Grate cheese.
  • Drain pasta.
  • Remove mussel mixture from heat. Stir in yogurt-ricotta mixture, parsley, cheese and pepper, and mix well. Spoon over pasta, and serve.
