Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 425°F. Cut the 1.5 lb potatoes into 1-inch wedges and toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast until golden and tender, about 25 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    While potatoes roast, pat the 1 lb squid dry and season with remaining 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over high heat.

  3. Step 3

    Grill the squid for 2-3 minutes per side until charred and just opaque, being careful not to overcook. Remove and let rest.

  4. Step 4

    In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp olive oil, juice of 1 lemon, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1/4 cup chopped parsley.

  5. Step 5

    Toss the roasted potatoes with half the dressing. Slice the squid into rings and arrange over the potatoes.

  6. Step 6

    Drizzle the remaining dressing over the squid and potatoes. Serve immediately with extra lemon wedges if desired.
