1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cherry peppers
4 kalamata olives
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup marinara sauce

directions
Scrub and debeard the mussels. Discard any that have open shells.
Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until the garlic is lightly browned.
Add the mussels, cherry peppers, olives, wine, and marinara sauce. Stir gently to coat the mussels in the sauce.
Cover the skillet and let the mussels simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the shells open. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Discard any mussels that do not open after 15 minutes of simmering.
Serve the mussels and marinara in bowls with bread to sop up the sauce.
common recipe questions
How do you debeard mussels?
The "beard" on a mussel is a fibrous thread protruding from the shell. It can be removed by pulling it off by hand or by using a sharp knife to scrape it away. It is technically edible, but it isn't very pleasant to eat.
