Ingredients

  • 8 medium-sized calamari tubes
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil and set aside.

2. In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, diced onions, diced bell peppers, minced garlic, chopped parsley, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.

3. Take a calamari tube and gently stuff it with the prepared filling. Be careful not to overstuff as the calamari will shrink while cooking. Secure the open end with a toothpick to prevent the filling from falling out.

4. Repeat the process with the remaining calamari tubes until all are filled.

5. Place the stuffed calamari in the greased baking dish and drizzle with a little olive oil.

6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the calamari is tender and the filling is golden brown.

7. Once cooked, remove the toothpicks and let the stuffed calamari cool for a few minutes before serving.

8. Serve the stuffed calamari with a squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of fresh parsley on top. Enjoy!

Tips for Success

  • Choose calamari tubes that are firm and fresh to ensure the best flavor and texture.
  • If you prefer a spicier version, add some crushed red pepper flakes to the filling.
  • Experiment with different herbs and spices to suit your taste preferences.
  • Pair the stuffed calamari with a side salad or crusty bread for a complete meal.
