As if grilled squid that's tender in the middle and charred on the exterior weren't good enough, we're pairing it with smoky bell peppers and a lemony herb salad. For the most delicious squid possible, look for small bodies and tentacles (bodies should be about four inches in length and tentacles about two) and pat dry before tossing in the garlic oil.
