Step-by-step Guide

Preparation

  1. Make a seasoning with the garlic and parsley until finely crushed and set aside.
  2. Clean the squid under running water, removing the entrails. Separate the wings and tentacles from the main body.
  3. Cut the squid, wings, and tentacles into thin strips approximately 1 cm wide.
  4. Put a little oil and salt on a plate, mix well and coat the squid strips evenly.
  5. Place a griddle over high heat and wait until it is completely hot. When very hot, add the squid strips. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are lightly browned.
  6. Without removing the squid from the griddle, add the cooked white beans. Using a spatula, stir them for about 2-3 minutes so they heat evenly.
  7. Next, add the garlic and parsley mixture to the preparation. Stir well for 1 minute to distribute it evenly.
  8. Turn off the heat and immediately add half a small glass of mild wine or apple vinegar on top. Stir well to combine all the flavors and serve immediately.
