Rinse and scrub the live mussels under cold water to remove any dirt or sand.

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat, add garlic, and sauté for 2-3 minutes.

Add cleaned mussels and a splash of white wine, cover, and steam for 5-7 minutes until opened.

Remove mussels from the pot, cool slightly, and discard empty shells.

In a mixing bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, minced garlic, herbs, cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Stuff each mussel half with the mixture, pressing gently.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and bake mussels for 10-12 minutes until golden.

Garnish with lemon wedges and parsley before serving.
