Shark is built for the grill. Its dense, meaty texture holds up on skewers without falling apart, and it soaks up marinades like a sponge. These kebabs get a two-hour bath in rice wine, dry sherry, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic that infuses every chunk with savory depth.

Threaded onto skewers and basted over low coals, the outside picks up a gorgeous char while the inside stays moist and flaky. The marinade doubles as basting liquid, building layers of glaze with every brush.

Serve these over steamed rice and you’ve got a meal that’ll have your guests rethinking everything they thought they knew about fish on the grill.

Pro Tips

  • Cut the shark into uniform 1 x 1.5 inch pieces so they cook evenly on the skewer
  • Marinate for the full 2 hours, turning occasionally so every side gets equal time in the liquid
  • Grill over low coals or under a broiler; high heat will dry out the exterior before the center cooks through
  • Soak wooden skewers for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent them from catching fire
