Quick Mussels




Ingredients:
2 lbs. of mussels
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 orange
1/2 small onion chopped
2 large plum tomatoes (cut in cubes)
1 teaspoon of fresh garlic (crushed with garlic press)
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
In sautéing pan warm up oil, once warm add chopped onions and garlic. Saute briefly and add tomatoes, salt and pepper. Continue to cook in low fire. Cut the orange and squeeze the juice and pulp into the pan (being careful not to drop in the seeds). Let cook for a few minutes. Once all the ingredients form a sauce add mussels. Cover with lid and let cook at medium fire for 4 to 5 minutes (or until mussel shells open).

Now, pour yourself a glass of chilled white wine and enjoy!
