Simply Broiled Swordfish Recipes

SIMPLY SWORDFISH

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil grate.
• Place swordfish steaks in a medium bowl, and brush with lemon juice. Coat each side with lemon pepper and dill.
• Place swordfish on the prepared grill, and cook 6 minutes on each side, or until fish is easily flaked with a fork.

GRILLED MARINATED SWORDFISH STEAKS

Steps:

• Preheat a charcoal grill or broiler, or heat a grill pan.
• Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper on both sides. Place oil in a flat dish, and add soy sauce, vinegar, rosemary, garlic, coriander, cumin, lemon rind and pepper flakes. Blend well. Place fish steaks in marinade, coat well on both sides, cover with plastic wrap and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes.
• If the swordfish is to be cooked on a grill (or grill pan), place fish on grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and cook for 3 minutes more. Cook longer if desired. If it is to be cooked under a broiler, place fish on a rack and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Serve with a string bean salad.

GRILLED SWORDFISH

Steps:

• Pat the swordfish dry on both sides. In a shallow dish just large enough to hold the swordfish in a snug, even layer, place the olive oil, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and oregano. Zest in both of the lemons, then juice 1 of the lemons into the marinade. Whisk to combine. Slice the second lemon in half crosswise and reserve for grilling.
• Add the swordfish steaks to the dish and turn to coat in the marinade. Let rest 10 to 15 minutes (do not let sit more than 20 minutes, or the acid will start to break down the fish). Halfway through, flip the swordfish over.
• Heat a gas grill or charcoal grill to medium-high (about 375 to 400 degrees F; you can also cook the fish under the oven broiler). Scrape the grill grates very clean, then oil to prevent sticking. Grill the swordfish for 4 to 5 minutes per side, just until it registers 135 degrees F on an instant read thermometer and is no longer pink in the center. Transfer to a plate and cover. Let rest 10 minutes.
• At the same time you are grilling the swordfish, grill the lemon halves by placing them cut-side down on the grill. Cook until char marks appear, about 6 minutes.
• Sprinkle the rested swordfish with herbs and a pinch of kosher salt. Squeeze the grilled lemon over the top. Enjoy hot.

BROILED SWORDFISH STEAK WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Wipe the swordfish dry with paper towels. Combine two tablespoons olive oil with the lemon juice, thyme, salt and pepper. Brush the mixture on the swordfish and marinate for one hour.
• Preheat broiler to high.
• Meanwhile, soften the shallots in the remaining tablespoon olive oil over low heat and add the tomatoes and rosemary. Cook for three to four minutes, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
• Broil the swordfish for five to seven minutes, turn and broil for about three minutes longer. Place on a serving dish or individual warm plates and place the tomato-rosemary mixture on the side. Serve immediately.
