Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 oz each) Blue shark steak
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 4 wedges Lemon wedges (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, minced garlic, chopped parsley, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the blue shark steaks in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 3

Cover the dish or seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, but no more than 2 hours, to let the flavors infuse into the fish.

Step 4

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Remove the shark steaks from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off. Discard the marinade.

Step 6

Place the steaks on the hot grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Avoid overcooking to ensure the meat remains tender.

Step 7

Once cooked, remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Serve the grilled blue shark steaks with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
