Delicious! I can't get ancho chillis here but used plain green chilli instead. I will definitely make this again!

I love calamari but not deep fried. This was perfect. I had a bag of frozen calamari rings (made for deep frying!!) and applied this recipe and it was terrific. I used a lot of garlic but did not roast it. Didn't have capers so left them out and used a drained can of diced tomatoes. It was still kind of like a soup so I served it in a soup bowl and loved soaking up the juices. Sure glad I found this one. Thanks ChefDebs

Yeah, it worked out really well. Super easy too once you get the calimari cleaned.

Wow! This recipe was simple but really great! Instead of Ancho Chilis I used chili paste and omitted the capers. This was fast and delicious! I poured this over pasta and it was amazing!
