Roasted Squid With Chorizo and Pimenton
By DAVID TANIS
SUMMARY
Everyone knows about fried calamari, but pan-roasted is a different beast entirely. This easy technique begins on the stovetop and finishes in a hot oven. In less than 10 minutes, you have savory roasted whole-body squid, made spicy with Spanish chorizo and a dash of pimenton, crisp on the outside and juicy and tender in the middle. Eat with a knife and fork or slice into rings for a warm salad.
