Quick Sauteed Squid Recipes

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Meanwhile, cut the body of the squid lengthwise into 1/2-inch strips and the tentacles into pieces. When the water is boiling, drop the squid into the water and cook it for 30 seconds (the water will not return to the boil). Drain and set aside.
• At serving time, divide the oil and butter between two skillets and place the skillets over high heat. When very hot, add the scallions and saute for about 10 seconds. Then add the squid, salt and pepper, and saute over high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Mix in the garlic and parsley and divide among six plates. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cut the squid into 1/4-inch rings. Wash, dry and place in a mixing bowl.
• Puree the garlic with 1/4 cup of the olive oil in a blender until smooth. Pour over the squid. Add the salt and pepper, tossing to combine.
• Heat a dry medium skillet over high heat. Then add a generous tablespoon of the remaining olive oil and heat until almost smoking. Pour in one-third of the marinated squid and saute about 30 seconds. Stir in one-third each of the tomatoes and cilantro and cook about 2 minutes longer, just until the tomatoes dissolve and the garlic colors slightly. Transfer to a platter, wipe out the skillet and repeat two times. Serve hot over rice or Spinach Pilaf.

Add half the oil to the skillet. Sprinkle half the squid with salt, slide them into the pan along with half the chiles and cook without moving for 1 minute. Flip squid and stir in half the garlic; cook 1 to 2 minutes more, until squid is tender. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining squid, garlic, chiles and oil. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan; if your skillet doesn't fit the squid comfortably, cook them in smaller batches.
• Squeeze lime all over the squid and sprinkle with mint.
• Top the crusty bread with sliced avocado if you like, and season avocado with salt and lime juice. Serve with the squid.

Steps:

• Toss squid strips with sea salt.
