Ingredients

• 5 small shrimps
• 5 mussels
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil
• Half of a cup of fresh parsley, chopped
• Half of a cup of white wine
• Half of a teaspoon of fresh thinly sliced lemon
• A pinch of pepper
• A pinch of chili flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1: Let’s get the seafood ready! Start by thoroughly washing the shrimps and mussels in a colander. Remove any other dirt or impurities and set aside for later.

Step 2: Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3: In a non-stick pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the minced garlic. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring continuously to avoid burning the garlic.

Step 4: Add the shrimps and cook for 1 minute.

Step 5: Add the mussels and stir. Cook for additional 2 minutes.

Step 6: Add the wine and cover with a lid. Cook for about 3 minutes or until the mussels are open.

Step 7: Add the parsley, lemon and pepper. Cook for additional 2 minutes. (If you want to add more spiciness, you can sprinkle chili flakes).

Step 8: Serve the meal in plates, with a side of your favorite vegetables. We recommend steamed broccoli, carrots, and peppers!
