Garlic-Butter Octopus Jalisco-style by John Spottiswood

This dish is my best rendition of a traditional meal served in the state of Jalisco in Mexico. We had this first in a small local restaurant in downtown Puerto Vallarta, and have been in love with it since!

Mexican Garlic Broiled Tilapia by John Spottiswood
