Chinese style squid stir-fry is a delicious and healthy way to eat squid.  Super quick & easy.   The squid is tender and juicy while the red chili bring a bit of heat.

Ingredients

Calamari or squid, raw
1 lb squid hoods, cleaned

fresh red chili 1 whole, thinly sliced
garlic 2 clove(s), crushed
oyster sauce  2 tablespoons

1 stalk green onion

 

Direction:

Step 1:    Cut squid hoods down the centre to open out. Use a sharp knife to lightly score a diagonal pattern on the inside of each squid. Cut squid into thick strips. Heat half pot of water in a wok over high heat. Boil squid  in batches, for 1–2 minutes until just cooked through. (The squid rolls up)  Transfer to a plate.

( Squid that is already cut and prepared can be found in store at the frozen seafood section).

        

 

Step 2:    Add oil to wok. Stir-fry the chili, green onion and garlic for 30 seconds or until fragrant.  Add the squid to the wok with the oyster sauce and 2 tablespoons of water. Stir-fry until heated through. Serve.
