    a gluten-free and spicy stuffed calamari

    Ingredients

    • 1 lemon
    • 10 calamari tubes
    • 1/4 pound loose chorizo (or casings removed for links)
    • 1/3 cup crabmeat
    • 1 large egg
    • 1 tablespoon almond meal/flour
    • pinch of salt
    • 1 shallot, finely diced
    • 10 toothpicks
    • avocodo oil (or preferred oil)
    • 1.5 cups canned organic crushed tomatoes
    • 1 teaspoon raw honey
    • S&P to taste
    • Garnish with chopped chives, parsley, or cilantro

    Directions

    1. Juice one lemon in a small bowl. Place calamari tubes in the lemon juice.
    2. In a separate medium bowl, combine chorizo, crabmeat, egg, almond meal, pinch of salt and shallot until blended. Place mixture in a plastic storage bag and cut off a corner. Pipe mixture into the calamari tubes. Seal off the ends of the calamari using toothpicks.
    3. Heat a grilling pan (or grill) on medium-high heat. Brush the stuffed tubes with preferred oil and season liberally with salt and pepper.
    4. Cook for approximately 7-8 minutes on each side until the internal temperature reaches at least 160 degrees.
    5. While this is cooking, place crushed tomatoes and raw honey in a small saucepan. Add a pinch of salt if desired. Stir and heat on medium until warm.
    6. Spoon tomato mixture on a plate. Remove toothpicks from calamari and arrange on the plate.
    7. Garnish with optional herbs.
    8. Enjoy!
