Calamares a La Plancha image

This dish of small, whole squids is a classic tapa from Andalucia (southern Spain). You could substitute squid rings or even small, white fish that have been butterflied. Although it's usually cooked on a hot, flat griddle (plancha), this recipe uses a frying pan.

I didn't have any paprika on hand, so I used smoked paprika instead. It turned out great!

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but otherwise it was very good.

Not bad, but I think I overcooked the calamari a bit.

Wow, this was delicious! I'm not usually a big fan of calamari, but this recipe changed my mind.

Pretty good, but not amazing. Calamari was a bit tough.

Loved the smoky flavor, thanks to the paprika. Calamari was tender and not rubbery at all.
