Time 13m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Juice of 2 limes
2 1/2 to 3 pounds mako shark, 1 inch thick
1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
1 ripe avocado
Fresh coriander leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • Mix chili powder, cumin, oil and the juice of one lime together in a shallow dish that will hold the fish in a single layer. Season with salt.
  • Trim the skin from the fish and cut the fish into six pieces of uniform size. Place the fish in the dish, turn it to coat both sides with the marinade, then cover and refrigerate for two hours, turning it once during this time.
  • Preheat grill. While the grill is preheating, peel and pit the avocado and cut it into thin slices. Mix the avocado slices with the remaining lime juice.
  • Grill the fish over very hot coals until seared on the outside and still slightly pink in the middle. Brush with the marinade while grilling.
  • Serve garnished with avocado slices and fresh coriander leaves.

This recipe was a disaster. The fish was overcooked and the sauce was bland. I won't be making this again.

This recipe is a keeper! I've already made it twice and it's been a hit both times. The fish is cooked perfectly and the sauce is so flavorful.

Not bad, but not great either. The fish was a bit dry.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The fish is always moist and flaky, and the sauce is delicious.

This recipe is too complicated. I gave up halfway through.

First time making Mexican Mako and it was amazing! The sauce was flavorful and the fish was cooked perfectly. Definitely a new favorite.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my Mexican Mako didn't turn out as expected. The flavor was bland and the fish was overcooked.
