Chardonnay Lemongrass Coconut Steamed Mussels - it’s usually one of those fancy dishes that you only order at restaurants, but you won’t believe how easy it is to make!
2 lbs fresh mussels (it would work with clams too tbh)
1 shallot, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup coconut milk from can
1 cup chardonnay
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 lemongrass stalk, cut into chunks and smashed
In a large heavy pot, add some olive oil and let it get hot. Add the shallot, garlic, and lemongrass. Stir fry for a minute or two until fragrant.
Add the brown sugar, fish sauce, chardonnay, and coconut milk. Let it come to a boil and then add the mussels.
Cover and let it steam for 5-8 minutes until they all open up.
Squeeze lime and garnish with cilantro. Serve with grilled crusty bread. Enjoy!
