Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup sliced shallots (4 to 5 large)
3 garlic cloves, chopped
3/4 cup dry Sherry
1 14 1/2-ounce can diced tomatoes in juice (preferably fire-roasted)
3/4 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon saffron threads, crumbled
3 dozen mussels, scrubbed, debearded
1/2 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley

  • Heat oil in large pot over medium heat. Add shallots and garlic; sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add Sherry, tomatoes with juice, paprika, and saffron; sprinkle with salt and generous amount of pepper. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium; boil gently 3 minutes to blend flavors.
