Ingredients
- 12 cleaned calamari filets
- 1 lemon (zest and juice)
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tsp. fresh chopped parsley
- salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 eggs
- 2 tblsp. water
- olive oil
- 2 tblsp. butter
Directions
Peel two tablespoons of zest from lemon and place in bowl. Mix in flour, parsley, salt and pepper. Prepare egg batter in separate mixing bowl by beating eggs with 2 tablespoons of water. Dip squid in flour then into egg, then back into the flour and into the egg.
In a non-stick skillet (a pancake grill works great) set over a high heat, add olive oil and butter. When hot, add 3-4 filets at a time. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over filets and serve. Optional: you could use a slightly smaller pan as a press to keep squid from curling.
