Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
  2. Add the sliced onion, chopped garlic and a little salt; stir every 2 to 3 minutes until the onions are slightly caramelized, about 15 to 20 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, cut two squid tubes into rings 1.25 cm (1/2 inch) thick, and the third tube into 2.5 x 2.5 cm (1 x 1 inch) squares.
  4. Add the squid to the pan and stir every minute until lightly sautéed, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  5. Stir in the paprika, then add the grated tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and simmer a few minutes until slightly thickened, about 4 minutes.
  6. Add the wine, broth and saffron, and bring to a high heat until boiling. Then lower to low-medium and simmer 5 to 10 minutes, until the squid is tender.
  7. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
