Marlin (or Shark) Espanole Recipe
This Marlin (or shark) Espanole recipe is a simple, saucy fish dish made by simmering onion and green pepper in tomato sauce with a savory Worcestershire kick. Keep the heat gentle and the cook time short so the fish stays moist while the sauce thickens just enough.

Step-by-Step Method
01
Prep the vegetables
Slice the onions and green pepper. Set a pot over medium heat and add them in.
02
Build the sauce
Pour in the tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, water, salt, and spices. Stir and let it gently bubble for about 5 minutes.
03
Simmer the fish
Nestle the marlin or shark steaks into the sauce. Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 12–18 minutes, turning once, until the fish turns opaque and flakes easily.
04
Adjust and serve
If the sauce is too thick, splash in a little water; if it’s thin, simmer uncovered for 2–3 minutes. Serve hot.
