Mussel, raw

1 lb
Chicken Broth

1 cup
Garlic

2 clove
Salt

¼ teaspoon
Black Pepper

½ teaspoon
Lemon

3 wedge - 1/8 of medium

Step 1

Make sure your mussels are cleaned and properly rinsed. Place the mussels in the bottom of a large pot so they cover the bottom without piling on top of each other. Pour in the chicken broth and drop in the garlic cloves.
Step 2

Cover the pot and simmer the mussels on medium heat for about 10 minutes. If you are cooking fresh, not frozen, mussels, cook until the mussels open.
Step 3

For serving, transfer the mussels with their broth to a serving dish. Sprinkle the salt and pepper over the mussels. Include wedges of lemon for squeezing.
