Chipirones en Cebolla offers a delightful balance of sweet, savory, and subtly oceanic flavors.
The sweetness of the slowly caramelized onions is the dominant flavor, contrasting beautifully with the mild, slightly briny taste of the baby squid. Olive oil enriches the dish with a fruity undertone, while a touch of garlic and sometimes white wine adds depth and complexity. The simplicity of the ingredients allows each component to shine, resulting in a harmonious and satisfying flavor profile.

Gentle Cooking
Cook the onions slowly over low heat to achieve a deep, sweet caramelization. Rushing the process can result in bitter onions and a less flavorful dish.
Fresh Squid is Key
Use the freshest baby squid available for the best flavor and texture. Look for squid that is firm, translucent, and has a clean, slightly salty smell.
Don't Overcook the Squid
Squid can become rubbery if overcooked. Add the squid towards the end of the cooking process and cook just until it turns opaque and tender, typically only a few minutes.
Deglaze with Wine
Deglazing the pan with a splash of dry white wine after the onions are caramelized can add a layer of complexity and depth to the sauce.
