Grilled Mussels, herbs and butter

  • 3 lbs mussels
  • 2 lemons
  • 1/2 stick butter
  • fresh parsley
  • coarse salt
  • pepper
1. Heat grill to medium-high. Clean it if you want, whatever. In a small pot, melt 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter over medium. Remove from heat and stir in 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley; set aside.

2. Working in batches, if necessary, place 3 pounds mussels, rinsed and scrubbed, on grill in a single layer. Place two lemons, halved and lightly oiled, on grill, cut side down.

3. Grill until mussels open and lemons are warmed and browned. Transfer mussels as they open to a large platter. (Discard unopened mussels.) Pour herb butter over mussels; sprinkle with coarse salt and ground pepper. Serve with lemons.
