Ingredients

1 pack Asda Rich Roasted Garlic Butter Scottish Mussels

2 slices Asda Extra Special White Sourdough, cubed

1 Lemon, zested then cut into thin wedges

6 slices Asda Pizza Pepperoni

½ x 25g Flat Leaf Parsley, most leaves roughly chopped

1 tbsp Olive Oil

Method

Cook the mussels following pack instructions. Carefully cut along the top of the pouches and tip the mussels into a big colander. Leave to cool for 5 mins until they are not too hot to handle; then, keeping the mussel flesh in one half of the shell, discard the other shell half. Place the prepped mussels on a baking tray and repeat until complete.

In a food processor, add the bread, lemon zest, pepperoni, and chopped parsley. You can use Italian salami or cooked diced chorizo in place of the pepperoni, if you prefer. Pulse until finely crumbed. Stir through the oil and then spoon a teaspoon of the mixture over each mussel. Chill if prepping ahead of time.

When you are ready to eat, place under a hot grill. Cook until the mussels are hot, and crumbs golden. Serve with the lemon wedges and extra parsley.
