How to Make Mussels In White Wine With Tomatoes Breadcrumbs

  1. In a large, deep pot or Dutch oven, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic in 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-low heat until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, white wine, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 10 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened.
  3. While the sauce simmers, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs and toast, stirring frequently, until golden brown and crisp, about 3-5 minutes. Set aside.
  4. Add the mussels to the tomato sauce. Increase the heat to medium-high, cover, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels open. Stir occasionally. Discard any mussels that do not open.
  5. Remove the cooked mussels with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a large, heated serving bowl.
  6. Stir the chopped parsley into the remaining sauce.
  7. Pour the sauce over the mussels.
  8. Sprinkle generously with the toasted breadcrumbs and serve immediately. Enjoy!
