Preparation steps

1.

Scrub the mussels and remove the beards. In a wide pan, heat the white wine, add the mussels, cover and simmer for about 3 minutes until the mussels have opened. Uncover, remove from the heat and discard any mussels that haven't opened.

2.

Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic. Rinse the chile pepper, remove the seeds if desired, and cut the chile into pieces. Rinse the pepper, halve lengthwise and remove the seeds and white ribs. Dice the pepper.

Blanch the tomatoes in a pot of boiling water for 10 seconds. Peel, quarter, core and dice.

Heat the oil in a skillet, add the onion, garlic, pepper, and chilies and stir in the tomato paste. Deglaze with the stock and add the tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper, and simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally for 20 minutes.

3.

Rinse the shrimp and pat dry. Add to the simmering soup and cook just until done, about 10 minutes. Add the mussels to the soup.

4.

Season with lemon juice, salt and pepper and serve garnished with cilantro leaves.
