Dive into a taste of Japan with my Japanese Boiled Squid recipe! This quick and easy seafood appetizer is made from whole squid boiled to perfection and paired with my zesty spicy mayo sauce!

Simmer for 3 to 5 minutes, until the calamari is tender. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper before serving. Recipe courtesy of Robin Takes 5 by Robin Miller/Andrews McMeel ...

To finish, grill 1 minute more on both sides over high heat. (The flesh should be tender but not slimy.) Serve squid hot with potatoes on the side. Garnish with lemon wedges and cilantro.
