Salted-chili FTW! I believe the trick to avoid the chewyness is to cook it either very quickly or very slowly.

Especially the chilli-salted kind. I've only cooked it once as in Lisburn you either had the pick of the occasional family-sized squid at the market (I'd use about a quarter of the beast) or those awful little frozen tidgie things they sold in Tesco. I read somewhere that frozen squid should be avoided as it makes the meat tough and chewy, as does over-cooking. Meant to give it another go, but only if i can get my girlfriend interested as I wouldn't cook a whole one for myself. I’m quite fond of squid myself. Especially the chilli-salted kind.
