2

Ingredients

FOR THE SALSA (4 servings):
1 cup fresh strawberries, stemmed and quartered
2 nectarines, pits removed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 red chili pepper (red jalapeño), seeded and finely chopped
1 Tbsp finely chopped red onion
2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
1 Tbsp chopped fresh mint
1 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
Scant pinch sea salt
Scant pinch black pepper
FOR THE FISH (2 servings):
1 - 170 gram/6 oz Blue Marlin steak (can substitute swordfish or tuna)
1 tbsp. fresh lime juice
1 tsp. olive oil
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Preparation

Step 1

FOR THE SALSA:

In a medium bowl, combine salsa ingredients and place in refrigerator to allow flavors to combine while you prepare marlin.

FOR THE FISH:

Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat until hot. Brush marlin steaks with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place on grill pan and cook for 3 minutes. Turn, and cook until desired doneness, about 2 - 3 more minutes for medium rare. This fish is better undercooked than overcooked.
Remove marlin steaks to a serving plate and let rest for five minutes then slice across the grain. Fan slices on plate and spoon salsa over fish and finish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
