1
Prepare the Filling
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chorizo. Cook until the chorizo is browned and the garlic is fragrant, about 5 minutes.
2
Mix the Filling
In a bowl, combine the cooked chorizo and garlic mixture with crab meat, breadcrumbs, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
3
Stuff the Calamari
Stuff each calamari tube with the crab and chorizo mixture, being careful not to overfill. Secure the open ends with toothpicks.
4
Grill the Calamari
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the stuffed calamari for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the calamari is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
5
Serve
Remove the toothpicks and serve the grilled crab stuffed calamari warm with the spicy tomato-coriander and pepper chutney on the side.
