Squid Saute With Tomatoes And Garlic Food

STEWED SQUID IN TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Gently saute the onion and the garlic in the olive oil. Add the tomatoes and white wine and simmer for five minutes.
• Add the squid, thyme, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer gently for 30 to 40 minutes or until the squid is tender. Correct seasoning and serve.

SAUTéED SQUID WITH SCALLIONS AND GARLIC

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.

SQUID WITH TOMATO AND GREEN PEAS

Steps:

• Put the olive oil and onion into a flameproof casserole.
• Saute over a medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 10 Minutes until it begins to soften and turn golden.
• Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes, then add the tomatoes and half of the chopped parsley.
• Cook at a gentle simmer for 10-15 minutes until the tomatoes begin to thicken.
• Slice the cleaned squid into 1.
• 5 cm rings.
• Divide the tentacle clusters in half.
• Add to the casserole.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Stir well, cover and simmer gently for 20-30 minutes until the squid is tender.
• Stir in the peas, season again and cook for a few more minutes until they are done.
• Stir in the remaining chopped parsley and serve with plenty of crusty bread to mop up the sauce.

SQUID SAUTE WITH TOMATOES AND GARLIC

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.

SQUID SAUTE WITH TOMATOES AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Cut the squid bodies 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 well 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 oregano 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. This dish works best when the squid is sauteed in batches. If the pan gets too crowded, it steams rather than sautes, which toughens the meat. This can be served over rice and beans as an entree, or with flour tortillas as an appetizer.

GARLIC-AND-HERB-BRAISED SQUID

Steps:

• Rinse squid under cold water and pat dry. Halve any large tentacles lengthwise and cut bodies (including flaps, if attached) crosswise into 1/2-inch-wide rings.
• Chop enough parsley to measure 2 tablespoons and reserve. Chop remaining parsley and garlic together. Heat oil in a 4-quart heavy pot over low heat until hot, then cook parsley-garlic mixture and red-pepper flakes, stirring, until garlic begins to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and add squid, then cook, stirring occasionally, until squid is barely opaque, about 1 minute. Add wine and briskly simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes. Add tomatoes with their juice, water, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until squid is very tender, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Season with additional salt and pepper and stir in reserved parsley.

SQUID IN RED WINE AND TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and sauté until golden, about 7 minutes. Add squid and sauté 1 minute. Add tomatoes, wine, basil, parsley, oregano, tomato paste, and crushed red pepper. Simmer until squid is tender and sauce thickens slightly, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
