Best Marlin Steak Recipes

GRILLED MARLIN

Steps:

• Season marlin with salt and pepper, rub with olive oil. Grill until they just turn white and are firm.
• Heat oil in a wok until very hot. Saute carrots and red cabbage until just limp, add bok choy, Chinese cabbage and onion, saute until warm but crisp, about 2 minutes.
• 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.

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.
