Calamari Steak with Bacon and Sweet Potato

Course Main Dish
Servings 2 People

Ingredients

  • 1 pkg. Coleson's Catch Calamari Steaks thawed
  • Flour
  • 8 strips Bacon
  • 1 c Sweet Potato peeled, diced cooked - I like it roasted in the oven but it can be boiled
  • 1/2 c Onion diced 
  • Salt and Pepper
  • 1/4 c Green Onion chopped

Instructions

  • Cut the bacon in to 1 inch strips. Saute until crisp.
  • Strain the bacon out of the fat and set aside. 
  • Saute onion in the bacon fat and strain out.
  • Dry the calamari steaks in a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Dust with flour. 
  • Saute Calamari steak in the bacon fat very lightly - only a minute or two on each side as it tends to get tough if over cooked.
  • Set the Calamari steak on the serving plate. 
  • Toss the hot sweet potato with the bacon, sauteed onion and green onion. Adjust seasoning.
  • Pour mixture over Calamari and serve.

Notes

Suggested side dishes would be sliced tomato, hot broccoli or salad.
