Number Of Ingredients 4

20 to 24 mussels, scrubbed and debearded
25 to 30 freshly ground black pepper
Lemon wedges, for serving
Extra-virgin olive oil, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the mussels in a medium skillet. Grind half of the pepper over mussels. Cover, and place over high heat. Cook until the mussels open, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. If there is not enough liquid released from the mussels it may be necessary to add a few tablespoons of water to steam the mussels.
  • As soon as the mussels have opened, transfer to a serving bowl. Grind remaining pepper over mussels. Serve with lemon wedges and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve immediately.
