SARDINIA - Octopus skewers with EVOO
SKU:
Grilled Octopus Skewers
Prep & Cook Time: 1 hour
Servings: 6–8
Ingredients
- 4.4 lb fresh octopus
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley
- Lemon, to taste (cut into wedges)
- Salt, to taste
- Viaggio extra virgin olive oil, to taste
Instructions
- Clean and rinse the octopus thoroughly. Choose medium-sized ones for even cooking. Skewer each octopus and use kitchen twine to secure the tentacles so they cook evenly.
- Place the skewers over high heat and cook slowly, turning occasionally, until the octopus is nicely browned and cooked through—about 40–50 minutes depending on size.
- In a small bowl, mix Viaggio extra virgin olive oil with minced garlic and chopped parsley. Brush this mixture onto the octopus skewers while grilling for added flavor.
- Once cooked, remove the octopus from the heat, season with salt, and serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges.
ENJOY!
