Instructies
In a medium bowl, mix together the vinegar, bittersweet paprika, dried oregano, mashed garlic, crushed red pepper, and salt.
Add the shark chunks and mix to coat thoroughly.
Cover the bowl and let the shark marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
Drain and pat the shark dry with paper towels.
Heat at least 1½ inches of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, or use a deep fryer set at 360°F (182°C) until a cube of bread turns light brown in 60 seconds.
Place all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour in a shallow bowl.
Dredge all sides of the marinated shark chunks in the flour, ensuring an even coating.
Carefully place the shark pieces in the hot oil.
Cook the shark, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides.
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried shark to paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the Crispy Marinated Shark Bites hot and enjoy this delightful dish with its well-balanced flavors and crispy texture!
