• In a small bowl, whisk together vinaigrette ingredients, excluding the olive oil. Slowly add oil in a small stream until the dressing is emulsified. Place vegetables in the center of the plate. Place grilled marlin on top. Drizzle vinaigrette over marlin and around the edge of the plate. Garnish with fresh orange sections.

SPICY TROPICAL FRUIT SALSA

• Combine fruits in a large bowl.
• In a small bowl, mix together the orange and lime juices and oil. Drizzle over the fruits and toss gently to mix well.

GRILLED MARLIN STEAKS

PACIFIC BLUE MARLIN (KAJIKI)

Steps:

• Lightly season fish with garlic salt and pepper.
• Then dust in flour and roll in egg.
• Next roll in bread crumbs.
• Heat skillet and melt butter.
• Squeeze lemon juice in and add about 1/2 the capers.
• Cook 1/2 the fish then add the rest of the capers and cook the other half.
• Be careful to not overcook as Marlin is easy to turn into leather if you do! Capers: Sort of like little olives.
• Expensive but it only takes a bit in a dish so worth it. If you don't have any, you might try green olives for a similar effect but use more and chop fine.

FISH WITH GRILLED FRUIT SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Rub each piece lightly with canola oil.
• Rub grates of the grill with a canola oiled paper towel. Place poblano pepper on grill and grill until blackened. Remove from grill and place in a paper or resealable plastic bag to rest. When pepper is cool enough to handle, peel off blackened skin. Remove the stem and scoop out the seeds. Chop only half of the pepper and place in a large bowl. Reserve the other half for another use or discard.
• Arrange fruit on grill and let cook 2 to 3 minutes, turn over, and cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from grill to a cutting board and let cool. When fruit is cool, chop into 1/2-inch pieces and add to the bowl with chopped poblano pepper.
• In a medium bowl, combine the minced serrano pepper, cilantro, lime zest and juice, agave syrup, lemon juice, cayenne, cinnamon and salt. Mix well and pour over the grilled fruit. Gently stir to combine, cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Serve on top of fish.
• Fish: Preheat grill or steel drum to medium-high. Rub the grill with a canola oiled paper towel. Salt and pepper both sides of fish. Gently place fish on grill or steel drum, cook for 3 minutes, carefully turn over and cook for 2 minutes more. Remove from heat to a cutting board, cover and let rest for 2 minutes. Cut into serving size pieces, if desired, and serve immediately with fruit salsa.
