Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds cleaned squid, bodies left whole (tentacles optional), rinsed and dried
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 or 3 lemons
1 teaspoon minced garlic
Salt and pepper to taste
6 cups arugula or mesclun
3 or 4 shallots, thinly sliced (optional)

Steps:

  • Start a charcoal or gas grill; fire should be quite hot, with rack no more than 4 inches from heat source. If using wood skewers, soak them thoroughly in water.
  • Toss squid with 2 tablespoons oil, juice of 1 lemon, garlic, salt and pepper. Let sit while grill heats, tossing occasionally. Skewer squid on parallel skewers to facilitate turning. When fire is hot, grill squid until nicely browned, turning once. Total cooking time will be about 5 minutes.

I'm not a fan of the way the squid is grilled in this recipe. I think it would be better if it was pan-fried.
