HERB-MARINATED SWORDFISH



Herb-Marinated Swordfish image

Swordfish steaks are meaty in texture yet delicate in flavor and best when cooked to medium, so that the flesh is firm but still juicy. (Like many proteins, it can get tough if overcooked.) Rather than marinating in advance, here the fish is marinated after cooking: Cooked in a skillet until golden, the steaks are then left to soak up a piquant pan sauce while warm. The sauce imparts the punchy flavors of briny capers and citrus, while the olive oil keeps the steaks moist. Serve with a simple salad or with crusty bread for sopping up the juices.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 pounds (1-inch-thick) swordfish steaks (about 3 or 4)
Salt
3 tablespoons drained capers, plus 1 tablespoon caper brine
2 tablespoons lemon juice, plus wedges for serving
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup coarsely chopped parsley
1/4 cup chopped chives
Crusty bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-low. Rub 1 tablespoon of the oil all over the swordfish and season with salt. Add to skillet and cook until golden underneath, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until golden underneath and medium throughout (flesh should be opaque, firm and flaky), about 5 minutes longer. Transfer fish to a shallow baking dish.
  • To the skillet, add the remaining oil and the capers, and cook over medium-low, stirring occasionally, until capers are sizzling vigorously but not browned, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in caper brine, lemon juice, pepper, parsley and chives. Pour the caper-herb oil over the fish. Let marinate at room temperature, turning once or twice and occasionally spooning the caper oil over the fish, for 15 minutes.
  • Divide fish among plates and drizzle with some of the caper oil. Serve warm or at room temperature, with lemon wedges and crusty bread.

Grilled Swordfish Recipe with a Mediterranean Twist image

Easy grilled swordfish recipe that utilizes a delicious Mediterranean marinade with cumin, fresh garlic cloves and more. But you don't even need to leave it in the marinade too long! Just a few minutes while your grill is heating!

Provided by Suzy Karadsheh

Categories     Fish and Seafood

Time 23m

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 to 12 garlic cloves, peeled
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, more for later
1 tsp coriander
3/4 tsp cumin
1/2 to 1 tsp sweet Spanish paprika
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
4 swordfish steaks, about 5 to 6 ounces each, from sustainable sources
Crushed red pepper, optional

Steps:

  • In a food processor, blend the garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, spices, salt and pepper for about three minutes or until well-combined forming a thick and smooth marinade.
  • Pat the swordfish steaks dry and place them in a pan (or a dish with sides to it) and apply the marinade generously on both sides and set aside for 15 minutes or so while you heat the grill.
  • Preheat a gas grill on high (be sure to oil the grates before using). When ready, grill the fish steaks on high heat for 5 to 6 minutes on one side, turn over once and grill on the other side for 3 minutes or so (the fish should flake easily, while maintain firmness. You will likely see a bit of pink on the inside, but it should cook through by the time it gets to the table).
  • Finish with a splash of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes if you like heat. Enjoy!

Provided by Social Butterfly D

Categories     Swordfish Recipes

Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

½ (12 ounce) bottle olive oil
¼ cup lemon juice
¼ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon dried dill
ground black pepper to taste
2 pounds swordfish steaks

Steps:

  • Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, parsley, garlic, dill, and pepper together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add swordfish and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 4 hours; the longer you marinate the fish, the stronger the flavor will be.
  • When ready to cook, preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove swordfish from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Cook swordfish on the preheated grill until fish is tender and flakes easily with a fork, about 4 minutes per side. Swordfish cooks very quickly and your grill will flare up with this marinade!

Tips:

  • Choose fresh fish: Look for swordfish steaks that are firm and have a mild, briny smell. Avoid any steaks that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
  • Make sure the marinade is flavorful: The marinade should be packed with bold flavors to complement the mild taste of the swordfish. Use a combination of spices, herbs, and citrus juices.
  • Marinate the fish for at least 30 minutes: This will give the marinade time to penetrate the fish and infuse it with flavor.
  • Cook the fish over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the fish while keeping the inside moist and flaky.
  • Serve the fish immediately: Swordfish is best served hot off the grill. Garnish with fresh herbs and lemon wedges for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

This grilled swordfish recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy this versatile fish. The spicy marinade adds a ton of flavor, and the grilled fish is moist and flaky. Serve it with your favorite sides for a complete meal. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a beginner in the kitchen, this grilled swordfish recipe is sure to impress. So fire up your grill and give it a try!
