Instructions


Step 1: Make the garlic bread

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Bake for 8–10 minutes until golden and crisp.

Heat olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a large skillet or pot over medium heat.

Add half the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.

Add mussels and white wine, cover, and steam for 5–6 minutes until mussels open (discard any that don’t). Remove mussels and set aside, leaving juices in the pan.

Step 3: Cook the shrimp & sauce

In the same pan, add remaining butter and garlic. Cook 1 minute.

Add shrimp, season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Sauté until pink, about 2–3 minutes.
