Clean and prepare the octopus for cooking.

Prepare the Octopus

In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the octopus and cook for about 30-40 minutes until tender. Remove from heat and let cool.

Cook the Octopus

In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, smoked paprika, oregano, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a smooth marinade.

Make the Adobo Marinade

Stir in the red wine vinegar and lemon juice into the marinade, mixing until well combined.

Add Vinegar and Lemon

Once the octopus is cool, cut it into bite-sized pieces and add it to the bowl with the marinade. Toss to coat all pieces evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

Marinate the Octopus

After marinating, remove the octopus from the refrigerator. Serve cold or at room temperature, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
