This quick calamari recipe is a great Mediterranean<\/a>-style appetizer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Butter gives the calamari a tender and flavorful base, while garlic <\/a>brings piquancy<\/a> and depth of flavor. A blend of Italian<\/a> spices, including oregano and thyme, enrich the dish with herbal notes, and chili flakes add spice, making the flavor more vibrant and expressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The calamari has a moderately soft yet firm texture that blends perfectly with the creamy smoothness of the butter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These calamari are best served with slices of fresh lemon<\/a> to add freshness and sourness<\/a>, which balances perfectly with the spiciness and sharpness of the dish. A crusty baguette is also a good addition to help soak up the sauce and flavors of the spices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I recommend making this recipe with baby calamari, but it would be delicious with regular calamari too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
