Method

Preparation of Basil Oil

  1. 1

    Make the Basil Oil

    In a blender, combine fresh basil leaves and olive oil. Blend until smooth. Add salt to taste. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove solids and set aside.

Roasting Calamari

  1. 2

    Season and Roast

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a bowl, combine calamari rings, olive oil, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly. Spread the calamari in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly golden.

Preparing Mixed Greens

  1. 3

    Toss the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss gently to combine.

Serving

  1. 4

    Plate the Dish

    On a serving platter, arrange the mixed greens. Top with roasted calamari and drizzle basil oil over the top. Serve immediately.
