Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup olive oil
1 thinly sliced garlic clove
1 medium shallot, minced
2 tbsp thinly sliced pickled jalapeno peppers
salt & freshly ground black pepper
4 lbs mussels , scrubbed
1 1/2 cups bottled clam broth
1/3 cup creme fraiche
1/4 cup coarsely chopped cilantro
1 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice

Directions:

In a large, deep pot, heat the olive oil. Add the shallot, sliced garlic and jalapeños, season lightly with salt and pepper and cook over high heat, stirring, until the garlic is softened and lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
Add the mussels and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the clam broth, cover and steam the mussels until they open, about 5 minutes.
Remove from the heat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the mussels to 4 deep bowls, discarding any mussels that do not open.
Add the crème fraîche and cilantro to the broth, swirling and shaking the pot until combined. Stir in the lime juice.
Slowly pour the broth over the mussels, stopping before you reach the grit at the bottom of the pot.
