SWORDFISH SKEWERS GLAZED WITH SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE



Swordfish Skewers Glazed with Sweet and Sour Sauce image

Categories     Sauce     Side     Swordfish     Boil

Yield makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup balsamic vinegar, preferably aged at least 6 years
18 red or white pearl onions
2 pounds skinless swordfish cut into 1-inch cubes (about 30 pieces)
4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
12 fresh bay leaves, sage leaves, or sprigs rosemary

Steps:

  • Bring the balsamic vinegar to a boil in a small saucepan. Lower the heat to a gentle boil and cook until the vinegar is reduced to about 1/3 cup. Set aside.
  • Drop the pearl onions into a medium saucepan of boiling water and cook until softened but still quite firm, about 4 minutes. Drain and let stand until cool enough to handle. Slip off the skins, leaving the root intact and the onion whole.
  • Toss the swordfish cubes, onions, and olive oil together in a bowl. Season lightly with salt and pepper and toss again.
  • Prepare a charcoal or gas grill.
  • Thread the fish, onions, and bay leaves onto long wooden or metal skewers, dividing the ingredients evenly among the skewers and alternating them as you like. Grill the skewers about 4 inches from the heat, about 1 minute on each side (for a total of 4 minutes). Serve with drizzles of balsamic reduction and pass remaining reduction separately.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh swordfish steaks that are at least 1 inch thick. If you can't find swordfish, you can substitute another firm-fleshed fish, such as tuna or salmon.
  • To make the skewers, cut the swordfish steaks into 1-inch cubes. You can also use shrimp, chicken, or vegetables for the skewers.
  • The sweet and sour sauce is easy to make and can be adjusted to your taste. If you like a sweeter sauce, add more sugar or honey. If you like a more sour sauce, add more vinegar or lemon juice.
  • To glaze the skewers, brush them with the sweet and sour sauce before grilling. This will help to keep them moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the skewers with rice, noodles, or vegetables. You can also serve them with a side of dipping sauce, such as soy sauce or sweet and sour sauce.

Conclusion:

Swordfish skewers glazed with sweet and sour sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The swordfish is cooked to perfection and the sweet and sour sauce is a perfect complement to the fish. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
