A simple recipe that is full of fresh, herbal flavors.
Ingredients
2 swordfish steaks, each about 6 oz., 1 inch thick
2 t. + 1 t. olive oil, divided
Coarse kosher salt
Fresh ground pepper
1 lemon, cut in half
SAUCE:
2 cloves garlic, minced
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
½ c. extra virgin olive oil
½ c. fresh parsley, chopped
2 T. fresh oregano, chopped
¼ c. fresh thyme, chopped
1 t. fresh mint, chopped
½ t. coarse kosher salt
¼ c. Kalamata olives, pitted and chopped, optional
To Prepare
Heat oven to 400◦. Season swordfish steaks with salt, pepper and 2 t. olive oil.
Heat skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 t. olive oil. Add swordfish to pan and sear for about 3 minutes on each side. Sear lemon halves in pan, cut side down, for about 2 minutes, just to form grill marks and browning on the cut surface of each half. Set lemons aside. Transfer fish to sheet pan and roast in the oven for about 10 minutes until opaque.
Meanwhile, prepare sauce by whisking all ingredients together in a medium bowl. Add olives, if desired.
To serve, spoon lemon herb sauce over each swordfish steak. Garnish with a grilled lemon half.
