Old Bay Calamari Recipe

Step 2

Fill a heavy duty bottom pot half way with vegetable oil and bring it up to 375 degrees.

Step 3

In a large bowl, add the flour, calamari and cherry pepper slices. Add a touch of salt and pepper and toss everything together to make sure the calamari and peppers are well coated in the flour.

Step 4

Add half of the calamari and pepper at a time in the hot oil (make sure to shake off the excess flour) and fry them for a few minutes or until lightly golden brown and crispy.

Step 5

Take them out and lay them on a paper towel lined plate and sprinkle with the old bay and toss them really well to make sure the old bay is coating them well.

Step 6

Serve the calamari with your favorite sauce or some good ole’ lemon wedges.
