This was featured on Everyday Italian, and I couldn't stop my mouth from watering. The good thing is, it hardly takes any time at all to prepare, so you'll be eating in no time! She suggests buying the uncut squid, so that you can slice it into the thickness that you'd like. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
2 garlic cloves, cut in 1/2 |
1 3/4 cups tomato sauce |
1 cup white wine |
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leave |

1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
2 lbs calamari, bodies thinly sliced and tentacles whole (squid) |

olive oil, for drizzling |
