Grill

Calamari alla Griglia con Riso Nero ... My Sicilian grandmother, then my mother have been making stuffed squid as long as I can remember. It's always stuffed with breadcrumbs and cooked in tomato sauce. I've since seen it cooked in other ways, including on the grill. Grilled calamari is as old as the hills, whether as is or stuffed. I got introduced to rice stuffed calamari from an old Ming Tsai recipe which had an Asian twist. This recipe sort of takes that idea, adds a Spanish twist by preparing squid ink stained rice in a shortened paella technique. After it's cooked, allow it to set for few minutes and slice it into 1" pieces and serve with sweet Asian style dipping sauce. It makes a great tasting and eye-catching appetizer
