I think I used too much red pepper, my mouth is on fire! But I like it spicy.
This was sooo good! The calamari was tender, and the sauce had the perfect kick! Will make again!
This was AMAZING! The calamari was so tender and the sauce had a nice kick. Will make again!
Honestly, I found it a bit too spicy. Maybe tone down the red pepper next time?
I’m so glad to hear that! The recipe really is a winner. Can’t wait to try it myself.
Nice recipe! Next time I’ll try with zoodles for a healthier twist. 🍝✨
Easy and quick! But I ran out of parsley, so I garnished with celery leaves. Still tasted good!
I dunno, isn’t parsley kinda a big deal for garnishes? Like, can’t imagine it tasting the same without it. But if you say it’s good…
Celery leaves? That’s a creative idea! I might try that next time. Glad it worked out for you!
Not what I expected. The calamari was kind of rubbery. Maybe cooked too much? Next time I’ll try less time.
I don’t think 5-7 mins is too long for calamari. Maybe yours wasn’t fresh? Just saying.
I had the same issue! The first time I made it, my calamari was super chewy too. I think the timing is key. Maybe just a few minutes less next time!
Linguine is too soft. Should’ve used spaghet! My pasta came out mushy overall…
I don’t think calamari belongs in pasta. It was too rubbery and the flavors didn’t mesh.
I totally disagree! I think the calamari adds a unique texture to the pasta. It’s all about the right seasoning! Maybe you just didn’t cook it long enough?
Rubbery? I thought it was chewy but in a good way! Everyone has their taste. It’s nice to try new things sometimes.
Why use calamari? Shrimp would have been better. 🙄
I actually think calamari adds a unique flavor! Shrimp is good too, but this is a nice twist. 😊
Calamaari? Yuck! No thanks.
Not bad, but kinda bland. I added more spices and it improved a lot. Next time I’ll drown it in hot sauce!
Umm, I don’t know. Maybe it’s supposed to be bland. Calamari can be sensitive, you know? Too much spice might ruin it!
I totally agree! I found it a bit bland too, but adding spices really brings it to life. Hot sauce sounds like a fun idea!
Ehh, I’m not a big fan of squid. Couldn’t finish my plate. Sorry.
Is it normal for calamari to smell bad when cooking? I almost threw it out! But it turned out good in the end.
Wait, is calamari squid? I thought it was fish. Anyways, my family didn’t like it. They said it tasted weird.
Yum! A little wine makes everything better, haha. Perfect for dinner with friends.
Absolutely! A splash of wine is a must for flavor and fun! 🍷
Linguine is just spaghetti with a fancy name, right? Idk, it was alright but I expected more taste.
Linguine has a different texture than spaghetti tho! Maybe try a little more garlic next time for better flavor?
This dish was amazing! The calamari was tender and the marinara was perfectly spicy. Will make again!
I love seafood pasta and this recipe nailed it! I added a bit more garlic because I’m a garlic lover. Yum!
I also love garlic! It makes everything better. This recipe is def going in my dinner rotation!
Easy to follow and delicious! My family loved it, even the kids.❤️
I made this for my family and they loved it, even my kids who usually hate seafood!
I tried it but forgot the wine. Still tasted okay, I guess. I think I’ll stick to just marinara next time.
