Charred Octopus Skewers
Built around octopus and olive oil -- the method starts by if your octopus is raw.
Smoke, char, and a sticky glaze -- everything good about cooking over fire. Here it's built on octopus, olive oil and garlic -- a medium, seafood recipe that starts by if your octopus is raw, and is ready in roughly 25 minutes.
Ready in 25 minutes -- genuinely doable on a weeknight.
A few technique steps to focus on, but nothing that needs special equipment.
Built around octopus, so the flavor comes from real ingredients, not a spice packet.
Ingredients
- 1 lb (450 g) octopus (pre-cooked/tender is easiest)
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- plus 5 more ingredients
Method
If your octopus is raw, first simmer it gently in water 45-60 minutes until tender, then cool. (Pre-cooked octopus skips this step.)
