Ingredients
* 2 pounds calamari, cleaned
* 4 cups tomato sauce
* 1 cup Chianti wine
* 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 2 1/2 teaspoons chopped garlic
* 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
* 1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
* 1 teaspoon dried basil
* 1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
How To Make:
1. Slice the body, or calamari tubes into rings thick, set aside.
2. to make sauce: combine tomato sauce, red wine, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, black pepper, cayenne pepper, basil, and cheese. Simmer on medium low for about 30 minutes to give the alcohol in the wine time to evaporate, and all the flavors time to blend.
3. Add the calamari to the sauce. Continue to slowly simmer for about another 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Calamari is done when it is plump and more opaque. Do not cook on higher heat or for a longer period, as calamari is famous for becoming rubbery.ready to serve....
