- 3 tbsp olive oil
- ¼ cup fresh dill

Heat 2 tbsp of the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add the peppers and onion and stir-fry until they begin to soften and char at the edges, about 4-5 minutes.

Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and the minced garlic to the empty side, cooking until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Add the squid rings to the skillet and toss everything together. Stir-fry until the squid turns opaque and just firms up, about 2-3 minutes. Do not overcook or it will become rubbery.
