Serves 4

INGREDIENTS

• Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• butter
• 15 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
• 2 lb calamari, sliced into rings
• 4 tbsp white wine
• Juice of 2 limes
• Salt and pepper
• Pinch cayenne pepper, optional
• 4 tbsp chopped fresh dill

Instructions

1. On medium-high heat, in large cast iron skillet, heat 1/3 cup of olive oil and 2 tbsp butter. Add the garlic, and saute briefly.

2. Rinse the calamari and pat dry and then add to the pan, cook for 1 to 2 minutes (calamari will release some liquid.) Add white wine and lime juice.
