To begin with this recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can have stuffed squid with asparagus and tapenade using 12 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Stuffed squid with asparagus and tapenade:
- Prepare 4 squid, whole
- Get 1 onion, chopped
- Prepare 1 bunch asparagus
- Get 1 chili, dried
- Prepare 1 packages tomatoes, cherry
- Get 1 can Black olives
- Prepare 1 lemon
- Get 1 clove garlic
- Make ready 1/4 can anchovies
- Get 1 olive oil, extra virgin
- Get 1 salt
- Take 1 ground black pepper
Here is how you can achieve it. To make the tapenade, place the anchovies, garlic, olives, lemon juice and four tablespoons of olive oil in a food processor and blend to a coarse. Whisk the sauce to break up the tomatoes. If it's too thick, thin it with a little water, ideally some pasta cooking water.
Steps to make Stuffed squid with asparagus and tapenade:
- Preheat the oven to 280°F centigrade
- Put squids into large baking tray
- Fry chopped onion and cherry tomatoes (cut into halves) with olive oil and pepper
- Using the fried vegetables, stuff the squids, filling them to the top with stuffing
- Drizzle olive oil, salt and pepper over the squids and put into the oven with tin foil over the top and set a timer for 30 minutes
- Whilst the squid is cooking, cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into a beaker. Add olive oil, pepper, the anchovies, garlic and the chili and finally, the olives and blend into a sauce.
- Put tapenade into a bowl and refrigerate. Once the timer is up, take out the squid and remove the tin foil. Place back into the oven for another 10 minutes.
- During the final ten minutes, take out a griddle and drizzle olive oil into it and put into the asparagus. Cook for about 5 minutes and turn over for another 5. Take out of the griddle and put onto a plate.
- Finally, take out the squid from the oven, put onto plates, serve the asparagus and tapenade and enjoy!
Whisk the sauce to break up the tomatoes. If it's too thick, thin it with a little water, ideally some pasta cooking water. Pass the sauce through a wide-holed sieve resting over a bowl, and use the back of a ladle to extract the smooth mixture.

Tapenade is usually made as an appetizer - made into a spread for crostinis or toast - but can be used to stuff meats - like I did!
