Steps:
- For the Lemon Aioli:
- Mix together all the ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
- For the Swordfish Panini:

Cook the fish in the skillet until just cooked through and golden, about 2 to 3 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fish.

Spread the Lemon Aioli on both halves of the sandwich. Top the bottom half with a handful (about 1/2 cup) of arugula greens. Top the arugula greens with the cooked swordfish, and top the sandwich with the remaining bread.
