Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-8 oz each) shark steaks
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon, grated fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons (for garnish) chopped fresh parsley
- 4 pieces (for serving) lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, ground black pepper, and red pepper flakes to make the marinade.
Step 2
Place the shark steaks in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the shark steaks, ensuring they are fully coated.
Step 3
Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow the flavors to infuse. Turn the steaks halfway through marinating for even flavor distribution.
Step 4
Preheat a 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, letting any excess drip off. Reserve the marinade for basting during cooking.
Step 6
Grill the shark steaks for 4-6 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Baste the steaks occasionally with the reserved marinade during cooking for added flavor, but stop basting in the final 2 minutes to ensure the marinade cooks thoroughly.
Step 7
Remove the steaks from the heat and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Step 8
Garnish the grilled shark steaks with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy your marinated shark steaks with your favorite side dishes!
