Mussels With Chard And Tomatoes Recipe
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 bunch Swiss or rainbow chard, ends trimmed and stems cut into 1-inch pieces and leaves into 1-inch ribbons (about 4 cups of ribbons)
- 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch-thick strips
- 1 orange bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch-thick strips
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 (28-oz) can whole peeled tomatoes
- 2 pounds mussels, debearded and scrubbed
- 1 tablespoon juice from 1 lemon
- 1/2 cup fresh chopped parsley
- Crusty bread
- Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the chard stems, onion and peppers and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes and allow to cook for a few minutes until the tomatoes soften enough to break apart with a wooden spoon or potato masher, raising the heat to bring to a simmer. Cook until the sauce begins to thicken and the tomatoes have broken down, about 6 minutes more.
- Add the mussels and the chard, season with salt and pepper, cover, and allow to cook until most of the mussels open, about 3 minutes. Discard any that didn't open. Stir in the lemon juice, then ladle into bowls and top with parsley. Serve with crusty bread for dipping.
