Swordfish with Fennel and Tomatoes image

Step aside, marinara. There's a new sauce in town, and it's blissfully fresh with fennel and basil. TV-inspired and husband-adored, it would be a crime not to share this one. -Laurel Dalzell, Manteca, California

The swordfish was a bit bland for my taste, but the fennel and tomatoes were delicious. I think I would add more seasoning to the fish next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the swordfish came out dry and overcooked. I think it would be better to cook the fish for a shorter amount of time.
