Ingredients:
1 pound fresh squid, cleaned
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon fresh Italian parsley
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups mache greens (also known as butter greens or field salad)

4. Pick up the squid with tongs or a slotted spoon and place in the center of the plates.

5. If desired, pour the remaining cooking liquid onto the squid.
