Grilled Calamari
To avoid your calamari from becoming too chewy you need to either cook it really fast or really slow. When cooked serve it in a large bowl or as individual servings to your guests.
Ingrediënten
- 450 grams Fresh Calamari Cleaned, Rinsed & Well Dried
- 60 ml Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 ½ Tablespoons Fresh Lemon Juice About 1 Small Lemon
- 1 Garlic Clove Thinly Sliced
- 2 Sprigs of Fresh Oregano or ½ Teaspoon Dried Oregano
- ½ Teaspoon Coarse Salt
- Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Instructies
- In a bowl place the olive oil; lemon juice and salt then stir until they combined together.
- Then into this mix the garlic and the whole sprigs or dried oregano.
- Whilst you are making up this sauce you should be getting the barbecue heated up and place the grill down as low as possible in order to cook the calamari quick on a very high heat.
- When the barbecue has heated up place the squid on the oiled grill and char each side of it for 1 minute.
- Now remove from the barbecue and slice all parts of the calamari including the tendrils cross wise into ¼ inch rings.
- Then add the calamari to the lemon sauce made earlier and then place on a serving plate.
- Just before you serve this dish to your guests make sure that you sprinkle over some freshly ground black pepper.
