Ingredients
- 2 pounds fresh mussels
- 1 pound white fish fillets (such as snapper or sea bass)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 can crushed tomatoes (14 ounces)
- 1 cup fish broth or vegetable broth
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust according to your preference)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Begin by cleaning the mussels. Rinse them under cold water and remove any beards or debris. Discard any mussels that are open or cracked.
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until they become translucent and aromatic.
- Add the crushed tomatoes, fish or vegetable broth, dried oregano, dried basil, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir well to combine the flavors and bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Gently place the fish fillets and cleaned mussels into the pot, ensuring they are submerged in the broth. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the mussels have opened and the fish is cooked through.
- Once the mussels have opened and the fish is fully cooked, remove the pot from the heat. Discard any mussels that have not opened.
- Serve the Acqua Pazza with mussels in bowls, making sure to ladle the flavorful broth over the fish and mussels. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley for added freshness and color.
