Calamari

Calamari

2 lb prepared squid, whole baby or the rounds if you prefer(I'd suggest a pound, if you're only serving a few people)
1/2 cup flour
5 tbsp olive oil
salt and black pepper
Lemon, wedges for looks but for a more even coating I suggest RealLemon with a squirt nozzle

Mix flour and salt and pepper in a plastic bag
Add the squid to the bag and toss until coated evenly
Heat oil in heavy or nonstick pan on medium heat
Heat oil up to sizzle but not to smoking then lay out squid evenly on the surface without touching
Cook for 2-3 minutes and then turn over
Cook another 1-2 minutes
Set out squid on paper towel as ready
Lay out on plate, spritz with the lemon, and serve
