1/3 cup olive oil
1/2 onion, thinly sliced
4 large garlic cloves, chopped
2 teaspoons fennel seeds
1 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup dry white wine
2 1/4-inch-thick lemon slices
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 1/2 pounds fresh mussels, scrubbed, debearded
1/2 cup chopped seeded tomatoes

  • Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, fennel seeds, crushed red pepper and salt; sauté until onion is light brown, about 4 minutes. Add wine, lemon slices and 1/4 cup parsley; bring to boil. Add mussels. Cover pot and cook until mussel shells open, stirring once to rearrange mussels, about 6 minutes; discard any mussels that do not open. Using slotted spoon, transfer mussels to large shallow bowl.

This dish is a must-try for any seafood lover! The mussels are cooked to perfection and the white wine sauce is divine. I served it with a side of crusty bread and it was the perfect meal.

I've made this dish several times and it's always a hit. The white wine sauce is so flavorful and the mussels are always cooked perfectly. I like to add a little extra garlic and red pepper flakes for a bit of a kick.

Not a fan. The mussels were overcooked and the sauce was bland. I think I'll stick to my regular mussel recipe.

So easy to make and so delicious! I used a dry white wine and it turned out great. The mussels were plump and juicy, and the sauce was flavorful without being too heavy. Definitely a keeper!
