Ingredients

• 4 pieces shark steaks
• 355 ml beer (lager or pale ale preferred)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 3 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
• 4 pieces lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the beer, olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, honey, minced garlic, paprika, black pepper, and salt to create the marinade. Whisk until well mixed.

Step 2

Place the shark steaks in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are fully submerged. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably up to 4 hours.

Step 3

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F or 190-200°C). Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Remove the shark steaks from the marinade and let excess liquid drip off. Reserve the marinade in a small saucepan for basting later.

Step 5

Place the shark steaks on the hot grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Avoid overcooking as shark meat can dry out quickly.

Step 6

While grilling, bring the reserved marinade to a boil on the stove, then let simmer for 5 minutes to ensure it's safe to use. Use it to baste the shark steaks occasionally for added flavor.

Step 7

Once cooked, remove the shark steaks from the grill and let them rest for 3-5 minutes.

Step 8

Sprinkle chopped parsley on top of the steaks for garnish and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
