Mussel Salad
For centuries, Chileans have smoked seafood to preserve it. Adding wood chips to the grill gives fresh mussels smoked flavor. Use a mesh rack, such as a vegetable grilling basket, to keep mussels from falling through the grates as they cook. This zesty dish is ideal on an antipasti platter or as a side to roast chicken, pork, or vegetables.
How to Make It
Step 1
Soak wood chips in water 30 minutes. Drain well.
Step 2
Prepare grill.
Step 3
Place wood chips on hot coals. Place a mesh rack on a grill rack over hot coals. Place mussels on mesh rack; cover and cook 3 minutes or until shells open. Remove from heat, and discard any unopened shells. Cool mussels. Remove meat from shells; discard shells.
Step 4
Combine vinegar, oil, and mustard in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add mussels, greens, and remaining ingredients; toss gently to coat.
