Ingredients
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 large scallions, sliced
  • 2 chipotles en adobo, minced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 plum tomato, diced
  • 2 pounds mussels (about 36 mussels), scrubbed and debearded
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine or chicken broth

Directions
  1. Heat grill to medium. Evenly distribute butter, scallions, chipotles, cilantro and tomato on the bottom of a large heavy-duty foil cooking bag. Add the mussels and wine; tightly seal the bag. Place bag on a sheet pan, and refrigerate until grill is ready.
  2. Carefully slide the bag onto grill, and cook until the bag is puffed, 10 to 12 minutes.
  3. Using oven mitts, remove the bag from grill, placing it back onto sheet pan. Carefully unseal the bag (steam will be released) to check that the mussels have opened. If not, reseal, and cook 3 to 5 minutes more. Remove from grill, and carefully cut the bag open, pulling back the foil. Serve immediately, spooning juice in bag over mussels
