Variants:
Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade for a spicy twist.
Herb Twist: Use fresh thyme or rosemary instead of oregano for a different herbaceous flavor.
Grilled Vegetables: Serve the octopus with grilled vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, or eggplant to enhance the Mediterranean vibe.
FAQ:
Q: How can I make the octopus more tender if it’s not cooked long enough?
A: If your octopus isn’t tender after boiling, you can simmer it for longer (up to 90 minutes) until it reaches the desired tenderness. Alternatively, marinate the octopus in lemon and olive oil before grilling to enhance the texture.
Q: Can I use frozen octopus for this recipe?
A: Yes! If you’re using frozen octopus, simply thaw it in the refrigerator overnight before cooking. Frozen octopus is often more tender than fresh because freezing helps break down its tough fibers.
