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.
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.
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.
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.
Step 5
Toss the roasted potatoes with half the dressing. Slice the squid into rings and arrange over the potatoes.
Step 6
Drizzle the remaining dressing over the squid and potatoes. Serve immediately with extra lemon wedges if desired.
