Pair Dan Pelosi's beer steamed mussels recipe with McCain's Craft Beer Battered French Fries for a seafood treat. Our drunken mussels fuel togetherness.
“Crispy and well-seasoned McCain Beer Battered fries are perfectly paired with mussels steamed in a delicious beer broth. The mussels come together in the time that it takes to cook the fries, making them the perfect recipe for easy entertaining and sharing with friends.”
Prepare the McCain Beer Battered Fries per the instructions on the bag.
While the fries cook, place a large pot over medium heat on your stovetop. Melt the butter over medium, then add the shallots. Sauté the shallots, stirring, for 2-3 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and sauté for another minute, just until fragrant.
Add the lager to the pan and bring to a simmer. Add the mussels, stir to coat, and cover with a lid.
Let the mussels steam for 5-7 minutes, shaking the pan a few times as they start to open. When all of the mussels are open, they are ready to eat. Discard any mussels that will not open.
Turn off the heat and taste the broth. Season with salt and pepper as needed.
Remove the fries from the oven, and season with salt, to taste.
Pour the mussels and broth into a large bowl or individual bowls and serve with the fries. Garnish everything with chopped fresh parsley. Dip the fries into the broth and enjoy!
