Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Clean and gut the whole tilapia and mojarra. Rinse the large shrimp and octopus under cold water. Mince the garlic and chop the onion, jalapeño, and green onions.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Seafood

    In a bowl, mix minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture over the tilapia, mojarra, shrimp, and octopus. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

    Grill the Seafood

    Place the marinated tilapia, mojarra, shrimp, and octopus on the grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the seafood is thoroughly cooked and has grill marks.

    Serve

    Arrange the grilled seafood on a platter with the grilled onions and jalapeños. Serve with a side of rice.
