GRILLED ROSEMARY SWORDFISH



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

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.)

2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
4 sprigs rosemary or 1 teaspoon dried

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.

GRILLED SWORDFISH WITH ROSEMARY-WHITE WINE SAUCE



Grilled Swordfish with Rosemary-White Wine Sauce image

Provided by Lisa Hardin

Categories     Fish     Low Carb     Rosemary     Grill     Grill/Barbecue     Bon Appétit     Georgia

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 6-ounces swordfish steaks (each 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
6 tablespoons minced shallots
6 tablespoons dry white wine
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled butter, cut into 8 pieces

Steps:

  • Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush fish with oil. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons rosemary. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Combine shallots, wine and lemon juice in small saucepan. Boil until liquid is reduced to 2 tablespoons, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add remaining rosemary. Add 1 piece of butter; whisk until melted. Place pan over low heat; add remaining butter, 1 piece at a time, whisking until each piece melts before adding the next. Remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, grill fish until opaque in center, about 3 minutes per side. Serve with rosemary-white wine sauce.

Tips:

  • Select the freshest swordfish steak possible: Look for firm, opaque flesh with no discoloration.
  • Marinate the swordfish for at least 30 minutes: This helps to infuse the fish with flavor and keep it moist during grilling.
  • Use a hot grill: This will help to sear the swordfish and prevent it from sticking.
  • Cook the swordfish for 4-5 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through: The fish should be opaque and flake easily with a fork.
  • Serve the swordfish immediately with your favorite sides: Grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a simple salad are all great options.

Conclusion:

Rosemary-citrus grilled swordfish is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. The marinade infuses the fish with flavor, and the hot grill sears it to perfection. The result is a moist, flavorful fish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
