Coriander Cumin Crusted Grilled Swordfish With Avocado Relish Food

GRILLED MARINATED SWORDFISH STEAKS

Steps:

• Preheat a charcoal grill or broiler, or heat a grill pan.
• Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper on both sides. Place oil in a flat dish, and add soy sauce, vinegar, rosemary, garlic, coriander, cumin, lemon rind and pepper flakes. Blend well. Place fish steaks in marinade, coat well on both sides, cover with plastic wrap and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes.
• If the swordfish is to be cooked on a grill (or grill pan), place fish on grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and cook for 3 minutes more. Cook longer if desired. If it is to be cooked under a broiler, place fish on a rack and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Serve with a string bean salad.

CORIANDER & CUMIN CRUSTED GRILLED SWORDFISH WITH AVOCADO RELISH

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine seasonings. Rub over swordfish. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium. Cook swordfish 5-7 minutes per side, until fish is opaque in center and flakes easily with a fork.
• In a medium bowl, combine relish ingredients. Serve swordfish steaks atop relish.

GRILLED SWORDFISH WITH SALSA FRESCA

Steps:

• Add the tomatoes, jalapeño, onions, cilantro and lime juice to a bowl and mix to combine. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature for at least an hour for all the flavors to come together.
• Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Drizzle the swordfish with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides. Place on the direct-heat side of the grill and cook until nicely charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Move to the indirect-heat side of the grill, close the lid and cook until cooked through, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the grill to rest, about 5 minutes. Serve the swordfish with the salsa spooned over the top.

CHARGRILLED SWORDFISH ON WARM AVOCADO CORN SALAD

Steps:

• Heat a non-stick pan to high, add the oil and sear the swordfish for 1 to 2 minutes or until starting to soften. Remove from pan. Cover with foil and keep warm in a low oven.
• Add the shallot, corn and red pepper to pan and cook, stirring for 1 to 2 minutes or until starting to soften.
• Add the avocado, coriander and white wine. Cover and steam for 1 minute until heated through.
• Place avocado corn mixture on heated plates and top with swordfish.
• Add lemon and vinegar to the pan and whisk into pan juices. Pour over the fish and serve immediately.

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.

CORIANDER RELISH

Steps:

• Whizz all the ingredients, except the cashew nuts, in a blender with a generous splash of hot water. Once the chutney is smooth, drain the nuts and add to the chutney, then blitz again. Aim for a sweet-tangy flavour, adding more sugar or lime juice if needed. Transfer to a bowl and store in the fridge. Will keep, covered, in the fridge for one day.

GRILLED SWORDFISH WITH CORIANDER LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Make Grilled Swordfish:
• Prepare grill.
• In a small bowl together butter, zest, 1 teaspoon lime juice, garlic, coriander, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Rub both sides of swordfish steaks with remaining 2 teaspoons lime juice and season with salt and pepper. Grill swordfish on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, swordfish may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.)
• Top each swordfish steak with a dollop of coriander lime butter and serve with grilled onions.
• Make Grilled Spiced Red Onions:
• Prepare grill.
• In a small bowl stir together oil, cumin, cayenne, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Brush both sides of onion slices with oil mixture and grill on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until well-charred and tender, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, onion slices may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.)
• Separate onion slices into rings. In a bowl toss onion rings with lime juice and season with salt and pepper.
• Serve with grilled fish, meat, or poultry.
