Ingredients
- 14.1 oz squids
- 12 cherry tomatoes
- 2.5 oz breadcrumbs
- to taste Taggiasca olives
- to taste salt
- to taste extra virgin olive oil
Tools
- Air Fryer
Steps
Cut the squids and place them in a bowl. Pat them with paper towels. Separately, cut the cherry tomatoes in half, prepare the olives and the breadcrumbs. Place the squids in a large bowl and add the cherry tomatoes, the olives, the salt, and the breadcrumbs. Mix well to ensure the breadcrumbs stick to the ingredients.
Transfer everything into the air fryer basket with parchment paper (I use these very useful paper trays: find them here) or in a baking dish if you use the oven. Cook in the air fryer at 356°F for about 15-20 minutes, turning them halfway, or in a preheated oven at 374°F for about 25-30 minutes. They should be nicely golden on top.
Serve as is or with lemon slices. Enjoy your meal!
Tips for You
✔ You can use fresh or frozen squids. In this case, I recommend defrosting them the night before in the fridge.
✔ For an even crispier version with the air fryer, you can put them directly in the basket without using parchment paper. I prefer them gratinated on top and soft inside, so I use paper trays for this: you can see them by clicking here.
✔ For this recipe, I used the COSORI 4.7 air fryer which you can find on Amazon here.
