Grilled Rosemary Swordfish image

My husband loves swordfish, and we have a ton of swordfish recipes because of that. But, this is his favorite way to have it-moist, tender and perked up with herbs. Tuna is a good substitute for swordfish. Its firm texture stands up to grilling. -Lorie Rice, Liverpool, New York

Categories     Fish     Herb     Onion     Quick & Easy     Backyard BBQ     Lime     Grill     Grill/Barbecue     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

For Grilled Swordfish
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon freshly grated lime zest
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 small garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon minced fresh coriander leaves
two 6-to-8 ounce swordfish steaks
Accompaniment if desired: grilled spiced red onions
For Grilled Spiced Red Onions
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
cayenne to taste
1 large red onion, cut crosswise into four 1/2-inch-thick slices
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice if desired

Steps:

  • Prepare grill.
  • In a small bowl together butter, zest, 1 teaspoon lime juice, garlic, coriander, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Rub both sides of swordfish steaks with remaining 2 teaspoons lime juice and season with salt and pepper. Grill swordfish on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, swordfish may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.)
  • Top each swordfish steak with a dollop of coriander lime butter and serve with grilled onions.
  • Make Grilled Spiced Red Onions:
  • Prepare grill.
  • In a small bowl stir together oil, cumin, cayenne, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Brush both sides of onion slices with oil mixture and grill on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until well-charred and tender, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, onion slices may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.)
  • Separate onion slices into rings. In a bowl toss onion rings with lime juice and season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve with grilled fish, meat, or poultry.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest swordfish you can find. Look for fish that is firm and has a mild, slightly briny smell. Avoid fish that is slimy or has a strong odor.
  • Marinate the swordfish for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to infuse the fish with flavor and keep it moist.
  • Cook the swordfish over medium-high heat. This will help to sear the fish and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • Cook the swordfish until it is just cooked through. Swordfish is a delicate fish, so it is important not to overcook it. The fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork.
  • Serve the swordfish immediately with your favorite sides. Swordfish is a versatile fish that can be paired with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Garlic lime swordfish is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is marinated in a flavorful mixture of garlic, lime, and olive oil, then grilled or pan-fried until cooked through. The result is a moist and tender fish with a slightly tangy flavor. Swordfish is a healthy choice, as it is low in calories and high in protein. It is also a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are important for heart health. Serve swordfish with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
