Preparation Instructions
Prepare the Octopus
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cleaned octopus and cook for about 30-40 minutes until tender. Once cooked, remove from water and let cool. When cool enough to handle, cut the tentacles into bite-sized pieces.
Prepare the Salad
In a large bowl, combine the grilled octopus, red onion, cherry tomatoes, parsley, and arugula or mixed greens. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and lemon juice, then toss gently to combine.
Serve
Adjust seasoning with more salt and black pepper if needed. Serve immediately in a takeout container for carry-out.
