Charred Squid Salad with Mustard Greens and Roasted-Garlic Dressing

  1. Preheat the oven to 350.
  2. On a sheet of aluminum foil, drizzle the garlic heads with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
  3. Wrap tightly and roast for about 1 hour, until the garlic is very soft; let cool.
  4. Halve the garlic crosswise and squeeze the garlic cloves out of the skins into a small bowl.
  5. Add 3 tablespoons of the olive oil and mash to a paste; whisk in 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice and season with salt.
  6. Meanwhile, finely grate 1 teaspoon of grapefruit zest.
  7. Using a sharp knife, cut the skin and all of the bitter white pith off of the grapefruit.
  8. Working over a medium bowl, cut in between the membranes to release the sections; discard the membranes and stir in the zest.
  9. Heat a large cast-iron griddle with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil.
  10. Add half of the squid and cook over high heat, turning once, until golden in spots and just white throughout, about 1 minute.
  11. Transfer the squid to a large bowl.
  12. Repeat with 1 more tablespoon of the olive oil and the remaining squid.
  13. Wipe off the griddle and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  14. Add the avocado, cut side down, and cook over high heat until nicely charred, about 1 minute.
  15. Scoop out the avocado and thinly slice it.
  16. Add the avocado, mustard greens and 1/2 cup of the roasted-garlic dressing to the squid and toss; reserve the remaining garlic dressing for another use.
  17. Season with salt.
  18. Transfer to plates.
  19. In a small bowl, toss the radishes with the almonds and remaining 1 tablespoon each of lemon juice and olive oil; season with salt.
  20. Top the salads with the radishes and almonds and serve.
