Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Soak 20 wooden skewers in water for about 20 minutes. Rinse the squid carcasses and pat them dry. Cut each carcass from top to bottom to create two triangular pieces. Thread each piece onto a skewer lengthwise. Place the skewers on a serving platter.

    For the vinaigrette, whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic, dried and fresh oregano, thyme, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle half the vinaigrette over the squid, reserving the other half for the salad.
  2. Place the tomatoes, onion, cucumber, cheese, olives, and romaine lettuce in a large bowl. Drizzle the remaining vinaigrette over the lettuce and toss to combine. Let marinate while you grill the calamari.

    Preheat a grill or grill pan and lightly brush with oil. Grill the squid for 2 minutes per side, no more, or they will become tough. To serve, arrange the salad on a large platter and top with the squid skewers. Garnish with fresh oregano leaves and lemon wedges.
