Prepare the octopus by cleaning and tenderizing it if necessary.

Boil the octopus in salted water for about 45-60 minutes until tender.

Preheat the grill to high heat.

Drain the octopus and let it cool slightly before cutting into pieces.

In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Brush the octopus pieces with the marinade and let them sit for 15-30 minutes.

While the octopus marinates, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Cut the potatoes into wedges and toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until golden and crispy.

Grill the marinated octopus for 3-4 minutes on each side until charred and crispy.

Remove the potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with chopped parsley.

Serve the grilled octopus alongside the roasted potatoes, garnished with lemon wedges.
