Number Of Ingredients 9

Coarse salt
1 pound spaghetti
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
3/4 cup diced shallots (4 large shallots)
1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley stems, plus 1 cup roughly chopped leaves
3/4 cup dry white wine
2 pounds mussels, scrubbed and beards removed
1/2 lemon, zested and juiced

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and cook pasta until al dente. Drain pasta, reserving 1 1/2 cups pasta water.
  • Meanwhile, in another large pot, heat 4 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat; saute shallots, red-pepper flakes, and parsley stems until tender, about 5 minutes. Add wine; cook until liquid is reduced by one-third, about 2 minutes. Add mussels, cover with a tight-fitting lid, and steam until they open, 5 to 6 minutes; discard any that do not open after 6 minutes.
  • Add pasta to mussels, tossing until well combined. Add pasta water, and continue to toss and cook over medium-high heat until sauce has reduced and coats pasta. Stir in parsley leaves and lemon zest and juice. Stir in remaining oil, and serve immediately.
