INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare the grill or heat a grill pan on the stovetop. In a small bowl
combine the chili powder, cayenne, ginger, coriander, salt and pepper. Rub
the squid bodies and tentacles with the spice mixture. Place the squid
bodies on the grill and weight them down with a clean brick wrapped in foil
or a large heavy skillet. Grill for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side. Remove the
object weighing down the squid and cook for an additional 30 seconds,
turning occasionally. Transfer the grilled squid bodies to a platter. Place
the tentacles on the grill and cook for about 2 minutes, or until they are
brown and crispy, rolling them around with your tongs as they cook so that
they brown evenly. Remove from the grill. Slice the grilled squid bodies
into 1/2-inch rings and if necessary cut the tentacles into bite-size
pieces. In a bowl whisk together the lime juice, honey, nuoc nam, garlic
and chili pepper. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Add the sliced
grilled squid and toss to coat. Add the sprouts, bell pepper and toss to
combine. Sprinkle the chopped mint and peanuts over the mixture and toss to
combine. Arrange the lettuce on a platter and top with the squid mixture.
This recipe yields 4 servings.
