Not sure why I haven't posted this yet, after all the times I've made it. Lien visited this weekend and wanted to try it, so here is the latest batch and the one I like the most of all the ones I've made.
Defrost and clean a box of frozen cooked mussels on the half shell. Checking for and removing any beards.
After you clean them, flip them over into a colander/draining basket and let drain for about 5 minutes.
Meantime, prep: minced garlic, finely chopped shallots, and finely chopped imitation crab meat.
Remove the mussels from the shells.
Cut the mussels into small pieces.
Add: Kewpie Mayo, Sriracha hot sauce, the garlic, shallots, and imitation crab meat. Season with soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Line a cookie sheet/baking dish with aluminum foil. Fill the half shells with the mussel-mayo mixture and place it on the baking sheet. Bake at 350 until bubbly (15 Minutes) and then broil low for another 2 minutes.
Serve. Makes a great party dish!
