Shark Steak

Today I'll be adding something new. A couple people have mentioned that it seems like the things I make seem too pricey, so at the suggestion of the DH, I'll be adding the price of each item as often as possible! Today's dish is in response to a request for more seafood items. My boys and I braved the strong winds from Tropical Storm Debbie and went across the way to Publix. There we found purple potatoes and several other items on sale. There were several seafood options on sale as well, including shrimp for tomorrow's dish, but the shark steak (not on sale) stuck out the most to me, and it was reasonably priced!

2 shark steaks
2 lemons, zested
1 pound purple potatoes (I used half purple and half yellow)
2Tbsp olive oil
1Tbsp fresh cracked pepper
2 stems fresh rosemary, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste

Start with the potatoes. Wash and slice about 1/8th of an inch thick. Heat 1Tbsp of olive oil in a large pan over medium low and add in the potatoes, salt and pepper to taste, and most of the rosemary. Leave a little rosemary out to sprinkle on later. Stir or toss often and cook the potatoes until a knife can be inserted and easily removed from the center, then set aside.

Heat your oven to 350f. Zest both the lemons into a small bowl. Add 1Tbsp of fresh cracked pepper, and combine well. Season the steaks with a bit of salt, then with the lemon pepper mixture. Heat 1Tbsp of olive oil over medium heat in a medium oven safe pan. Once hot, add the steaks and sear for about 5 minutes, or until nicely browned. Turn and place in the oven for roughly ten minutes, or until they have reached the proper temperature, and remove. Plate on top of a layered row of the potatoes that have just been sprinkled with a little more rosemary, and serve! A quick squeeze of lemon juice is a good idea here too. Some sort of cream sauce would be good to have I think, however I didn't think of that at the time. Hope you enjoy!
