Grilled Squid with Miner's Lettuce Salad and Green Sauce
Matthew Dillon makes this recipe with octopus, but it's also super with squid, which cooks more quickly and is easier to find. The accompanying green sauce is incredible: It's loaded with flavor from anchovies and capers and an abundance of fresh herbs, and it's terrific on everything from seafood to pork to chicken.

Make Ahead
The green sauce can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.
Notes
Miner's lettuce is a delicious and delicate salad green that's also commonly known as winter purslane. Look for it at farmers' markets.
Suggested Pairing
Seafood like squid and octopus and herby sauces like the one here both go perfectly with New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, because the wine's bright, citrusy fruit typically has a distinctive herbal edge.
