Αφού ετοιμαστεί το ρύζι και λίγο πριν είναι έτοιμο προσθέτουμε τα μύδια, το ξύσμα από το λεμόνι και σκεπάζουμε το τηγάνι με καπάκι και αφήσουμε σε χαμηλή φωτιά τα μύδια για 2-3 λεπτά.

Αποσύρουμε από την φωτιά και προσθέτουμε λίγο άνηθο, αλατοπίπερο αν χρειάζεται, λίγο φρέσκο ελαιόλαδο και λίγο ξύσμα λεμονιού.
