INGREDIENTS
5 oz Octopus (cooked)
1/2 medium Sweet Potato
1 cup Broccoli
2 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for the roasted sweet potato and charred broccoli.
Peel and cut the sweet potato into 1/2-inch rounds. Toss lightly with a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread out on a baking sheet.
Cut the broccoli into florets, toss with a dash of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and arrange on the same or separate baking sheet.
Roast the sweet potato for about 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized, and roast the broccoli for approximately 10-12 minutes until edges become charred.
Meanwhile, pat the cooked octopus dry. Mince the garlic and marinate the octopus lightly with garlic, lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the octopus for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crisp on the edges.
Plate the dish by placing the seared octopus alongside the roasted sweet potato and charred broccoli. Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the octopus and garnish with a squeeze of fresh lemon if desired.
