Default Insalata di Calamari a la Griglia

Beware the squid........

I seperated the heads and the tails (?) and marinaded them in olive oil, lime juice, a myriad of spices and some fresh thyme. I grilled them on a medium fire until opaque and with a nice flavorful char.





The calamari were placed on a bed of mixed greens tossed with a basalmic reduction. Served with an olive, feta relish.



When I came home from the store with a pound of squid, I was met with resounding boos from the 'under 9' United Brethren Anything Disgusting (UBAD), Local No. 6. I ate one of the tenticles right off the grill and dared the boys to give it a try. Guess what?! They liked it. Will wonders never cease.

Thanks for the challengin throwdown. G'night Bruces.
