You either love it or hate it, but for those in the know, octopus can go down a tasty treat. The maritime ingredient is then made that much better when it’s placed on a grill, which NY-based Boukies seems to know all too well. In breaking down the steps to preparing their Marinated Grilled Octopus, Boukies — a restaurant offering traditional Greek meze — makes the dish easy to comprehend, thus allowing you to attempt the often overlooked home-cooked dish yourself. The simple steps include preparing the seafood, followed by adding from the easy-to-find recipe the marination items to then be placed in the oven to stew. Once succulent, the octopus gets its time on the grill with added lemon flavoring, an obvious pairing for such an occasion. What’s left is for you to then serve and enjoy.
