How to Make Mussels Fra Diavola
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
- Pour in the crushed tomatoes and white wine. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Add the mussels to the pot. Cover and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels have opened. Discard any mussels that do not open.
- Stir in the fresh parsley and basil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- If desired, stir in 1 tablespoon of butter at the end for extra richness.
- Serve immediately with crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
