Delight in the taste of the sea with our Squid Skewered and Grilled, a dish that brings together the vibrant flavors of fresh seafood and the artistry of grilling. Each skewer is a testament to our commitment to serving the finest seafood, expertly prepared to enhance its natural characteristics.
Our squid is sourced daily, ensuring only the freshest catch is used in this delightful dish. To prepare, we begin by selecting tender squid, known for its sweet, delicate flavor and satisfying texture. Each piece is carefully cleaned and cut into generous, bite-sized chunks, allowing for a perfect balance of tenderness and char when grilled.
Before they hit the grill, the squid pieces are marinated in a zesty blend of olive oil, garlic, and a hint of lemon juice. This marinade infuses the squid with bright, aromatic flavors that elevate its natural sweetness. Allowing the squid to marinate not only enhances the taste but also helps to tenderize the flesh, resulting in an incredibly succulent bite.
Grilled over an open flame, our squid skewers develop a beautifully smoky, charred flavor that perfectly complements their inherent sweetness. The high heat caramelizes the edges, creating a tantalizing contrast between the crisp exterior and the tender interior. The result is a dish that’s bursting with flavor and has an inviting aroma that’s sure to entice.
Each skewer is served hot off the grill, showcasing the squid's delectable, slightly crispy texture and rich flavor. We recommend enjoying the Squid Skewered and Grilled with a side of our homemade garlic aioli for dipping, adding a creamy richness that perfectly complements the smoky notes of the squid.
Pair this delightful dish with a glass of chilled Albariño, which enhances the freshness of the squid and makes for a refreshing combination.
