Method
Instructions for Calamari Al Pepperoncini Flatbread
Prepare the Calamari
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Cook the Calamari
Add the sliced calamari to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn opaque and are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook, as calamari can become rubbery.
Add the Pepperoncini
Stir in the sliced pepperoncini and lemon juice. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.
Season the Mixture
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and stir in fresh parsley.
Assemble the Flatbread
On a clean surface, lay out the flatbread. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over each piece.
Top with Calamari Mixture
Divide the calamari mixture evenly among the flatbreads, spreading it out evenly.
Add Cheese
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over each flatbread.
Serve
Place the flatbreads on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for about 5-7 minutes, until the flatbreads are warm and the cheese is slightly melted. Serve immediately.
