This calamari salad would make an excellent starter for a casual Christmas Day barbecue.
- Place chillies, green onions, garlic, 1/4 cup lemon juice, vinegar and 1/3 cup oil in a large ceramic bowl. Season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
- Score inside flesh of calamari hoods in a criss-cross pattern and cut crossways into thick strips. Place calamari strips and tentacles in a bowl. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon oil.
- Preheat a greased barbecue plate on high heat. Add calamari strips and tentacles. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes each side or until curled and just cooked through. Add to chilli marinade. Leave to marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes (or longer in the fridge).
- Arrange rocket on serving plates. Spoon over calamari and chilli marinade. Serve.
