Method

1 Make slashes across squid using a sharp serrated knife - but don't cut all the way through. In a bowl, add olive oil, lemon juice and zest, garlic and half parsley. Season well with a pinch of sea salt and some freshly ground black pepper. Add squid and put to one side to marinate for at least 30 mins.

2 Heat grill to high, then sit squid on a roasting tray, put under the grill and cook till squid begins to char slightly, about 5 mins each side. Toss over remaining parsley and serve with crisp lettuce leaves, garnished with onion rings and lemon wedges.
