1
Prepare the Octopus
In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the octopus and cook for about 40-50 minutes until tender. Remove and let it cool.
2
Marinade Preparation
In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
3
Marinate the Octopus
Once the octopus has cooled, cut it into manageable pieces and place it in the marinade. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
4
Grill the Octopus
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated octopus pieces for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until charred and heated through.
5
Serve
Remove from the grill and serve hot, garnished with additional lemon wedges and herbs if desired.
