Steps:
- Make the Salmoriglio by combining garlic, oregano, olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper and mixing well. I combine them in a jar, close the lid tight and shake it up. This will make more salmoriglio than you need, but the extra can be refrigerated and used later for chicken or fish on the grill.
- Pre-heat grill and set fire to medium.
- Brush both sides of the swordfish steaks with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the steaks on the grill and cook turning once until cooked through and lightly browned. About 5 minutes per side. Remove from grill.
- Place the slices of ciabatta bread, crumb side down on the grill and lightly toast. Remove from grill.
- Arrange the arugula on the bottoms of the Ciabatta. Drizzle a little salmoriglio on the arugula, then place a swordfish steak on top. Drizzle more salmoriglio on the swordfish and on the toasted side of the top pieces of ciabatta. Place the salmoriglio soaked tops over the swordfish and serve with extra salmoriglio on the side for your guests to add more if desired.

Steps:
- Prepare a charcoal grill or preheat a gas grill or broiler; the fire should be moderately hot and the rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source. In a small food processor or blender, combine anchovies, parsley, garlic, lemon juice and zest, and 2 tablespoons oil. Process until puréed, adding a little bit of hot water (or more oil) if necessary to allow the machine to do its work. Stir the capers into the purée.
- Cut swordfish steaks in half horizontally, leaving the skin attached as a hinge. Spread about half the parsley mixture on the inside, then close the steak with a couple of toothpicks. Brush with remaining oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Grill or broil 6 or 7 minutes a side, or until the swordfish is done (swordfish is best when it is still slightly pearly, or you can cook it until it is flaky and well done). Serve with remaining green sauce.
