Pati Jinich's Grilled Calamari, Radicchio and Endive Salad - Home & Family

feta cheese

🥗Healthier: cottage cheese

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Cottage cheese is lower in fat and calories while ricotta provides a similar creamy texture.

Pat the calamari dry with paper towels to ensure it doesn't release too much water while cooking.

Season the calamari with salt and black pepper.

Use a grill pan to cook the calamari, ensuring not to overcrowd it.

Cook the calamari until it flattens and curls, indicating it's done, and look for char marks.

Remove the calamari from the grill pan once it is charred on the outside and soft on the inside.

Slice the grilled calamari into bite-sized pieces for easy serving.

Prepare the vinaigrette by combining 1/2 cup of olive oil, sliced garlic, and 1/4 cup of pistachios in a bowl.

Squeeze in the juice of a lemon and add red wine vinegar, mixing well to combine.

Grill the endive with a little oil, salt, and pepper until it transforms and gets a slight char.

Combine the sliced calamari with the grilled endive and vinaigrette before serving.
