Notes
Top Tips
You can also score the squid prior to marinating as this will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate into the squid. Once cooked, you can cut the squid body width wise to make grilled calamari rings. Grilled squid with marinade tastes very good without warming up. Take care not to warm up the grilled squid too much because it will end up tasting rubbery.Nutrition
