Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
-
4 cups grape tomatoes, halved
-
1 medium shallot, sliced
-
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
-
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme, plus more for garnish
-
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
-
1 (15 ounce) can no-salt-added white beans, rinsed
-
2 pounds mussels, scrubbed and debearded if necessary (see Tip)
-
½ cup dry white wine
-
Lemon wedges for serving
Directions
-
Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add tomatoes and shallot; cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes start to release their liquid, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in garlic, thyme and crushed red pepper; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add beans and stir to combine. Place mussels on top and pour in wine. Cover and cook until the mussels open (discard any unopened mussels), 5 to 6 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges and garnish with more thyme, if desired.
