Steamed Mussels In Tequila Chipotle Broth Recipes

Steps:

• In a large nonreactive skillet with a lid, over medium-high heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions, peppers and jicama. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the tequila. Place the pan back over the heat and carefully flame the pan. Shake the pan back and forth several times until the flame dies out. Add the tomatoes, stock and coconut milk. Bring to a simmer. Add the mussels. Season with salt and pepper. Cover with a lid and cook until the mussels have opened, about 4 to 6 minutes. Remove the lid and add the cilantro. Preheat the fryer. Fry the tortillas until crispy and golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with Creole seasoning. To serve: Spoon the mussels and vegetables in the serving bowls. Ladle the liquid over the mussels. Pile the fried tortillas in the center of each bowl.

Steps:

• Rinse the mussels under cold running water while scrubbing with a vegetable brush. Discard any with broken shells. Heat oil in a 6 to 8-quart stockpot. Saute the shallot, garlic and thyme to create a base flavor. Add the mussels and give them a good toss. Add wine, lemon juice, chicken broth and red pepper flakes; cover the pot and steam over medium-high for 5 minutes until the mussels open. Toss in the tomato, parsley and butter, recover the pot, and steam for another minute to soften. The tomatoes should keep their shape. Serve with plenty of grilled garlic bread to sop up the broth.

Steps:

• Heat broiler. Put olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper and let sizzle for 30 seconds without browning. Add the mussels, stir to coat and increase heat to high. Add the wine or water, and put on lid. After 2 minutes, give the mussels a stir, then replace lid and continue cooking until all mussels have opened, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Paint cut sides of the baguette pieces with oil and place cut side up under broiler to toast. Rub toasts with the remaining garlic cloves.
• Stir the chopped parsley into the mussels, then ladle mussels and broth into bowls. Serve with the garlic toasts.

Steps:

• Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium heat. Add onion, carrot and celery and sauté until onion is tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in coconut milk, stock, wine and garlic; boil over medium-high heat until reduced to 2 cups, about 15 minutes. Stir in mint, cilantro and chilies. Add mussels; cover and cook until mussels open, about 5 minutes (discard any mussels that do not open). Transfer mussels and broth to large bowl and serve.
