Ingredients
- mussels, washed and soaked in water (i used prepackaged new zealand mussels on a half shell)
- medium gulf shrimp (though, any shrimp will do), shelled with tails left on
- 2 large ripe tomatoes, diced
- 1/2 white onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1/2 sweet red pepper, diced
- 1/2 tsp of hot red pepper flakes
- oregano
- 1 bay leaf
- mint
- 1 lemon, sliced into 4 wedges
- red wine (i used cabernet sauvignon) or you can use white wine
- butter
- salt and pepper to taste
olive oil
you can butterfly the shrimp in order to remove the vein. i soaked the unpeeled shrimp in cold water for a few minutes, peeled it accordingly, then slowly pulled out the vein. it should slide out quite easily.
