Spicy Grilled Squid

Spicy Grilled Squid

Our Spicy Grilled Squid brings the essence of the Korean seaside right to your plate. Tender squid, marinated in a bold mix of gochujang, garlic, and a touch of sweetness, is grilled to perfection. This dish is a true Korean favorite, often enjoyed with a cold drink on warm evenings by the ocean. It’s simple, quick, and irresistibly satisfying, perfect as a main course for two or as a shareable appetizer for your next dinner night. Serve it with a side of steamed rice, fresh salad, or a squeeze of lemon for an extra refreshing kick.

재료

200 g squid, cleaned and cut into rings
3 tbsp Bibap Manufacture Sauce for Korean squid
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 lime, cut into wedges
fresh herbs (cilantro or parsley), chopped
wooden or metal skewers (if grilling)

Preparation

Prepare the squid:
Clean the squid if necessary, removing the head, beak, and innards. Rinse well under cold water and pat dry. Score the body lightly in a crisscross pattern — this helps it cook evenly and absorb the marinade.
Make the marinade:
In a small bowl, mix gochujang, soy sauce, honey, vinegar, garlic, chili flakes, and oil until smooth.
Marinate:
Brush or rub the Bibap Manufacture Korean Squid Sauce all over the squid (inside and out). Let it rest for about 10–15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Grill:
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Grill the squid for 3–4 minutes per side, until it’s slightly charred and just cooked through. (Be careful not to overcook — it turns rubbery quickly.)
Serve:
Slice into rings or serve whole. Drizzle with a squeeze of lemon, sprinkle with sesame seeds or spring onions, and enjoy with steamed rice or salad.
