How to Make Marlin Steak

  1. Pat 2 (6-ounce) marlin steaks dry with paper towels. Season generously with 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning on both sides.
  2. Season both sides of the marlin steaks with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering hot.
  4. Carefully place marlin steaks in the hot skillet.
  5. Sear for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
  6. Remove from heat and let rest for 1 minute.
  7. Garnish each marlin steak with a lemon wedge.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite tortilla chips and chunky tomato salsa.
