INDONESIAN GRILLED SWORDFISH

Provided by Ina Garten Bio & Top Recipes

Categories     main-dish

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup canola or peanut oil, plus extra for brushing on the grill
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest (2 lemons)
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup minced or finely chopped ginger root
2 tablespoons minced garlic (4 cloves)
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Six 8-ounce, 1-inch thick swordfish steaks
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Combine the soy sauce, canola oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, ginger root, garlic, and mustard in a bowl. Pour half the sauce in a low flat dish that's just large enough to hold the swordfish in one layer. Place the swordfish on top of the sauce and spread the remaining sauce on top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight.
  • Thirty minutes before you're ready to serve, build a charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill.
  • When the coals are medium-hot, brush the cooking grate with oil to prevent the fish from sticking. Remove the fish from the marinade, allowing some of the ginger to cling to the fish, and discard the marinade. Sprinkle the fish generously on both sides with salt and place it over the coals. Cook for 5 minutes on each side, just until it's no longer pink in the middle. Place on a platter, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Serve hot or warm.

GRILLED MARINATED SWORDFISH STEAKS



Grilled Marinated Swordfish Steaks image

Swordfish, with its firm, lean flesh, is an ideal candidate for grilling. It's not as forgiving as some fatty fish, like tuna and black sea bass, so proceed with caution. If you remove the fish from the fire when the center is still slightly pink, by the time it gets to the table it should be cooked through. A quick marinade of soy sauce, red wine vinegar, rosemary, garlic, coriander and cumin pairs beautifully with the meatiness of the fish, but do not marinate for more than 10 to 15 minutes, or the acid will break down the flesh and leave it mushy (or the flavor will overpower the fish). If you don't have a grill, this works equally well in a broiler. Serve this alongside a colorful pile of Pierre Franey's green bean and tomato salad. It's a summer meal you'll never forget. (Swordfish is on the Monterey Bay Aquarium's seafood watch list, but you can find sustainable options here.)

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 center-cut swordfish steaks, about 6 ounces each, one-inch thick
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
4 sprigs rosemary or 1 teaspoon dried

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.

SWORDFISH MARINATED IN LEMON, ROSEMARY AND GARLIC



Swordfish Marinated in Lemon, Rosemary and Garlic image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon snipped fresh rosemary, or 1 teaspoon dried leaves
1 garlic clove, crushed through a press
4 swordfish steaks, 3/4-inch thick (about 1/2 pound each)
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained
Lemon wedges for garnish
4 strips (1/2 by 3-inches) lemon zest

Steps:

  • Combine the lemon zest, oil, rosemary and garlic on a large, shallow platter or a tray large enough to hold the swordfish steaks in a single layer. Add the swordfish, sprinkle with salt and pepper and turn to coat with the marinade. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours.
  • Brush the grill or broiler pan with a thin film of oil. Just before serving time, preheat the grill or broiler. Transfer the swordfish to grill or broiler pan, reserve the marinade left on the platter. If broiling, adjust the oven rack so that the tops of the fish are about 3 inches from the heat source. Grill or broil until lightly browned, 5 to 8 minutes, depending on the intensity of the heat. Using a spatula, carefully turn each steak. Spoon any marinade and pieces of lemon zest and rosemary onto the tops of the steaks. Broil until lightly browned and the center of the fish is opaque when tested with the tip of a knife, about 5 to 8 minutes. Serve garnished with capers and lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • Don't overcook the swordfish: Swordfish is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked, so cook it until it is just opaque in the center. Overcooked swordfish will be tough and dry.
  • Use a non-stick skillet: This will help to prevent the swordfish from sticking to the pan and breaking apart.
  • Season the swordfish generously: Swordfish has a mild flavor, so it is important to season it well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Serve the swordfish immediately: Swordfish is best served hot, so serve it as soon as it is cooked.

Conclusion:

This ginger lemon and garlic swordfish steak is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The swordfish is cooked to perfection and the ginger, lemon, and garlic sauce is flavorful and zesty. Serve this dish with rice or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
