Ingredients
- 3-4 shark steaks
- 1 TBSP Garlic Salt
- 1 TBSP Onion Powder
- 1 TBSP Thyme
- 1 TBSP Ground Pepper
- 1/2 TBSP Chili Powder
- 1/8 cup Worcestershire Sauce
- 1/8 cup soy sauce
Be sure to skin your shark. This can be somewhat labor intensive as the skin is strongly bound to the meat itself.
Similar to how you skin a catfish, you can eventually remove the skin by pulling and stretching the skin until it separates from the flesh. You may need to help it along a bit by using a sharp knife to split off the connective tissue at key points but, with a little patience, you will eventually have a clean slab of firm shark meat to work with.
In a bowl, mix all of the other ingredients until you have a pretty think paste.
Put the shark steaks in a glass baking vessel, paint the paste on both sides of the shark steaks, cover and put them back in the refrigerator.
We want the shark to marinate in our rub for at least a couple of hours.
In a 325 degree oven, cook the fish for 40 minutes, flipping them over at 20 minutes.
I have eaten a lot of fish in my life and I can tell you that shark, following this recipe, will be some of the tastiest fish you will ever have. Sort of reminiscent of Jamaican Jerk.
