Step 1

Heat 3 tbsp. oil in a 12" skillet over medium-high heat. Add chorizo and garlic; cook until golden, 3–4 minutes. Divide between 4 plates; keep warm.

Add remaining oil to pan and return to medium-high heat. Pat calamari and tentacles dry using paper towels and season with salt and pepper and cook, flipping once, until browned and slightly curled, 4–6 minutes; divide between plates. Add artichokes, salt, and pepper to pan; cook until browned, 3–4 minutes, and divide between plates. Garnish with chopped orange and zest.
