Broiled Swordfish Steaks With Cumin Food

BROILED SWORDFISH STEAKS

Steps:

• Sprinkle the swordfish steaks with salt , pepper, and paprika and gently rub into the fish.
• Preheat a greased broiler rack.
• Place the swordfish steaks on the greased broiler rack and brush with the melted butter. Put them under the broiler, about 2 to 3 inches from the heat source. Broil the steaks for about 4 minutes.
• Turn the swordfish steaks, brush with more melted butter, and broil for 4 to 5 minutes longer.
• The fish should be lightly browned and will flake easily with a fork when done.
• Transfer the swordfish to a platter or individual plates and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Serve with lemon wedges and drizzle servings with a tablespoon or two of garlic parsley sauce (below), if desired.
• Serve with rice or potatoes.
• In a bowl, combine the 1/2 cup of chopped parsley with the grated lemon zest, minced garlic, olive oil, and 3 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice.
• Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.

GRILLED SWORDFISH RECIPE WITH A MEDITERRANEAN TWIST

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!

SWORDFISH (OR HALIBUT) WITH A CUMIN CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler to medium or prepare the barbecue. To make the spice rub, roughly crush all the spices together in a pestle and mortar or in a bowl using the end of a rolling pin. Add a little salt if desired. Tip the spice mixture onto a flat plate and turn the swordfish steaks in it to coat each side thoroughly.
• Cook under the broiler or on the barbecue for 8-10 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes and is just cooked and the outside is golden and crisp.
• Combine all the salsa ingredients in a bowl, cover and chill until needed. Serve the fish with a spoonful of salsa, a green salad, and lime wedges for squeezing over.

GRILLED CUMIN MARINATED SWORDFISH

Steps:

• Combine the first 10 ingredients in a pie plate or some other deep platter; stir well to blend.
• Add the fish steaks to the marinade; turn over to coat.
• Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Grill or broil the fish steaks about 3 inches from heat source for 5-7 minutes (time depends on how hot the heat source is), or until lightly browned on one side.
• Turn steak over and grill or broil for about 5 minutes.
• Check for doneness, insert the tip of a knife into the thickest part of the steak--fish is done when it changes color from translucent to opaque.
• Serve steaks on individual plates with lime wedge for garnish.
• I like to squeeze the lime wedge over the fish for extra POW.

GRILLED SWORDFISH STEAKS WITH WHOLE-LEMON DRESSING

Steps:

• Pat four 4-6-oz. swordfish steaks (1"-1½" thick) dry with paper towels, then coat with 1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil. Season both sides with kosher salt; set aside while you make the dressing.
• Using a sharp chef's knife, trim ends from 1 large lemon; slice into thick rounds and remove seeds. Very finely chop lemon rounds (peel, pith, and flesh) and transfer to a small bowl. (Alternatively, you can pulse in a food processor.) Mix in 5 sprigs oregano, thyme, or marjoram, leaves picked, finely chopped, 2 garlic cloves, finely grated, 1 Tbsp. capers (not drained), 2 tsp. ground coriander, 1 tsp. sugar, and ½ tsp. crushed red pepper flakes (if using).

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; oil grate. Place reserved swordfish steaks on grill; cover and grill fish, turning once, until flesh is opaque and just cooked through (an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part should register 130°F for medium-rare) and steaks release easily from grate, 3-5 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter.
• Spoon some dressing over swordfish and serve with remaining dressing alongside. Do ahead: Dressing can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before using.

• Stir the cucumber, sour cream, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a small bowl until combined. Season to taste with salt, and refrigerate until ready to serve. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour in the chili sauce, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook 5 minutes to blend the flavors. Season with black pepper, and remove from the heat.
• Brush the swordfish steaks on all sides with the 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Cook on the preheated grill until the fish is no longer translucent in the center, and easily flakes with a fork, about 3 minutes per side. Baste with the chili sauce while grilling. Serve the swordfish with lemon slices and the cucumber sauce.
