  1. Green Garlic Butter: Place butter, garlic and cilantro in a food processor and process till smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Pan Seared Char: Heat extra virgin olive oil in a large saute/fry over high heat till almost smoking. Season char with salt and pepper and sear, skin-side down, till golden, about 2 to 3 min. Turn over and continue cooking for 3 to 4 min or possibly till just cooked through.
  3. Grilled Tomato Broth: Preheat grill pan or possibly grill. Slice tomatoes in half vertically, brush with oil, season with salt and pepper, grill till soft, and coarsely chop.
  4. Bring fish stock to a simmer, add in the tomatoes and cook for 10 min. Place the mix in a food processor and process till smooth.
  5. Put the mix into a clean saucepan and bring to a boil. Add in the mussels and cook till all the mussels have opened, discarding any which don't.
  6. Remove the mussels to a bowl. Whisk a few Tbsp. of the butter into the tomato broth and season with salt and pepper. Add in the mussels back to the broth. Stir in posole.
  7. Assembly: Place 1 char fillet in the center of each shallow bowl. Ladle sauce over and around the fish. Divide the mussels among the bowls and sprinkle with minced cilantro. Serve with crusty bread, such as a baguette.
