directions
Step 1
In Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat; brown sausage, in batches. Transfer to plate. Drain fat from pan. Add red onions, garlic, paprika and hot pepper flakes; cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Pour in tomato juice and wine; bring to boil. Return sausage to pan; reduce heat, cover and simmer for 45 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, scrub mussels under running water; trim off any beards. Discard any with cracked shells and any that do not close when tapped. Add mussels to pan; cover and cook until mussels open, about 12 minutes. Discard any that do not open. Serve sprinkled with green onions.
