Steps:
- Heat a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and chorizo and saute for about 2 minutes. Then the celery, garlic, tomatoes, fennel and onions, and saute until tender but not too soft, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Add the mussels, and saute again until the mussels start to pop open. Add the clam juice and wine and cover the skillet. Steam the mussels until they open, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove any mussels that didn't open, and transfer the rest from the skillet to a serving bowl(s), leaving the liquid behind. Add the butter and simmer until the liquid reduces a bit, about 2 minutes.
- Pour the liquid over the mussels and serve with a delightful crusty bread.
STEAMED MUSSELS WITH FENNEL AND TARRAGON RECIPE
Giada De Laurentiis uses Peroni, an Italian beer, for this quick-cooking seafood dish served at her eponymous Las Vegas restaurant, but any light-bodied lager will work and make a perfect drink pairing as well.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a medium pot over medium-high. Add fennel and shallots and cook, stirring often, until fragrant and beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Add garlic, season with salt, and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add mussels and stir gently once or twice to coat with oil. Pour in beer and stir once more to coat. Cover pot and steam mussels, stirring halfway through, until they open, about 3 minutes. (Discard any mussels that do not open.) Add butter to pot and mix until butter is melted into pan sauce and mussels are coated.
- Transfer mussels and sauce to a serving bowl and top with tarragon. Serve with bread alongside for dipping.
