  • In a large saucepan put the butter in low heat until it melts and add the chopped shallot, once it changes color add the mussels, 1 tablespoon (15 mL) chipotle, cover and simmer in low heat until they open.
  • Once they are all open take them out and reserve on a side, (be sure to get rid of the ones that did not open because they might be not too fresh)
