SPICY GARLICKY MUSSELS

MUSSELS STEAMED WITH CHORIZO SAUSAGE

Steps:

• In large, deep sauté pan or casserole (5 quarts or larger), warm olive oil over medium heat and add chorizo, garlic and leek. Sauté until leek is transparent and soft, about 5 minutes. Add mussels, thyme, oregano and tomatoes. Stir well.
• Add wine and stock to sauté pan. Cover, and cook over medium heat until the mussels open, 6 to 8 minutes. Uncover pan, and simmer for a few minutes to reduce liquid by half. Add butter, and stir quickly with a fork to emulsify it into the sauce.

ROASTED MUSSELS WITH SPICY PORK SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Tomato Sauce:
• To make the tomato-sausage base, put a saucepan over medium-high heat and add the oil. Add the onions and cook until translucent, stirring, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chorizo and saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and wine, reduce the heat to a simmer, and simmer gently until slightly thickened and reduced, about 10 to 15 minutes. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Keep the tomato base warm while you cook the mussels.
• Mussels:
• Put the mussels in a large skillet or wok over high heat, add the stock or wine, and cover with a lid. Cook the mussels until they open, about 5 minutes. Remove the lid, and pour the tomato-sausage base over the mussels. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until fully heated through. Divide the mussels among 4 shallow soup bowls and serve immediately, garnished with lemon wedges.

• Sprinkle the parsley and bread crumbs over all. Divide the mussels among six bowls and ladle the broth and sausage over them. Serve with crusty bread.
