Method

  1. Start by prepping your olive oil, lemon, garlic so the cooking goes quickly.
  2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the fennel bulb and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  3. Add the grilled octopus and let it saffron, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
  4. Fold in the kosher salt and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
  5. Add the white wine and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
  6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a squeeze of lemon right before serving.
  7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
