SEARED WAHOO

Steps:

• I live in Wahoo country! (Bermuda) We catch a lot of wahoo here and it is a white firmer fish, it is a fish you do not want to over power with a other masking flavors. Also a fish is cooked too long will dry out and will not taste good whats so ever. Flash Grill and some Olive oil, salt and pepper is pretty much it Grilled Wahoo 6 Wahoo Steaks about ½ inch thick Good Olive Oil S & P Drizzle Olive Oil all over the Wahoo steak; sprinkle on some good kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper both sides! Pre-heat grill to med-high and place the steaks on the grill 5 to 6 minutes each side, it is a quick cooking fish and you do not want to overcook the Wahoo. Over cooked Wahoo is nasty! It should be tender and juicy. We have found that by only using olive oil, salt and pepper the flavor of the fish is not masked and the natural flavors are enhanced. However...Gourmet It UP 1tbsp of soy sauce 1 tbsp of sesame oil 1 tsp of fresh graded ginger 1 clove of pressed garlic Mix well and pour over Wahoo, marinate for 30 minutes, grill and garnish with chopped green onions Or you can also steam this dish for 5 minutes only! We had it the other night at wedding, it was a loin, seared, served over a cucumber and seaweed salad with wasabi and soy sauce Please save the tartar for fish sticks!
