I cook the squid in garlic, soy sauce, chile oil, and butter. It’s a simple but delicious combination.

Recipe Ingredients

2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, finely grated
1 teaspoon finely grated ginger root
4 drops chile oil, or more to taste
2 tablespoons butter, divided
2 pounds squid, cleaned and chopped
1 lemon, halved

Cooking Directions

1 Mix soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and chile oil together in a bowl until soy-ginger sauce is smooth.
2 Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet or wok over medium heat; add squid. Cook and stir squid, adding soy-ginger sauce, until sauce is reduced and thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and stir in butter until well integrated.
3 Squeeze lemon halves over squid to serve.
