Octopus Lollipop Skewers

1. Start with fresh octopus and steam or braise until fork tender. Depending on how thick your octopus is, this can take 1-2 hours. If you braise, you can add in herbs and lemon; otherwise, simply steam with water.
2. Once tender, use metal skewers to assemble the octopus for the grill.
3. Brush the skewered octopus with olive oil, garlic pepper, and a bit of lemon zest.
4. Crank your grill to 500F.
5. Sear your octopus lollipops for just a few minutes (3-4 minutes) per side to achieve a delicious crispy goodness.
