Smoky Mussels and Clams with White Wine Broth

Yes - my husband and I (sometimes) scoff at cooking instructions, as evidenced by the dish above, Smoky Mussels and Clams with White Wine Broth.

Instead of hassling with the grill, we decided to make the dish on the stove top - and it still turned out beautifully.

Oh, and instead of serving the clams and mussels with a side of crusty bread we decided to whip up a side  of boiled shrimp.  We're cooking rebels.
