Instructions
Step 1
Rinse and scrub mussels under cold water.
Step 2
Using your fingers or paring knife, remove beards (strings that hang from the mussel shells), and discard.
Step 3
Add butter, oil and anchovies to a large pot over medium heat. Cook until the anchovies break down, about 1 minute. Add garlic and red pepper flakes and let sizzle for about 30 seconds.
Step 4
Quickly pour in wine and broth into the pan and season with salt and black pepper, to taste.
Step 5
Bring sauce to a boil and cook 3 to 4 minutes, then stir in mussels, and cover immediately. Shake pot and let boil for 1 minute.
Step 6
Stir mussels, cover, and let boil for 3 to 4 minutes until the shells begin to open.
Step 7
Stir in parsley. Serve with grilled bread, if desired.
