Swordfish Spiedini Giada De Laurentiis Recipes

SWORDFISH SPIEDINI - GIADA DE LAURENTIIS

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for medium-high heat or preheat a ridged grill pan over medium-high heat.
• In a large bowl, whisk the oil, herbes de province, salt and pepper to blend.
• Add the swordfish cubes and toss to coat.
• Thread the swordfish cubes alternately with 1 slice of pancetta onto each of the skewers, wrapping the pancetta around the fish cubes as you go.
• Grill the skewers until the swordfish is just opaque in the center and the pancetta is crisp, about 8 minutes, turning and brushing often with the remaining marinade.

SWORDFISH AND SPAGHETTI WITH CITRUS PESTO

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain pasta and reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta liquid.
• Blend the basil, pine nuts, garlic, zests, juices, salt, and pepper in a food processor until the mixture is finely chopped. With the machine running, gradually add the olive oil until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the Parmesan. Toss with the warm spaghetti and the reserved pasta water.
• Meanwhile, place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Brush both sides of the swordfish fillets with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the swordfish 3 to 4 minutes a side for a 1-inch thick fillet.
• Transfer the pasta to a serving platter and top with the grilled swordfish fillets and serve.
