Step 8Pan-fry squid
Now quickly pan-fry your squid parts in a hot oil-covered pan.
Add just enough to cover the pan, and stir them around quickly with your tongs or slotted spoon.
Squid cook FAST- flip them as soon as the first side turns opaque, about 45-60 seconds, and pull them out of the pan as soon as the other side is done, another 30-45 seconds.
Be careful not to overcook them, as squid can become rubbery after more than a couple of minutes cooking. Alternatively, cook your squid for more than 30 minutes- the meat will soften, and the squid will be tasty again. I'm lazy and prefer the two-minute method, but your mileage may vary.
Flip your freshly-fried squid out onto a paper towel-covered plate to cool and drain.
