Easy Lemon Butter Swordfish Food

EASY BAKED SWORDFISH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to Bake at 375 degrees F, (190.6 degrees C)
• Use a deep, baking dish just large enough to hold the swordfish steak. I used a medium-size baking dish for this recipe, a 2.5 quart (or 2.3 L ) baking dish.
• On the bottom of the baking dish, drizzle 1 + 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil, and squeeze 1 whole lemon, then sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of ground garlic powder.
• Place the swordfish steak on top of the first layer of marinade.
• Then, drizzle on top of the swordfish steak with a little extra virgin olive oil, the remaining ( 1/2 teaspoon) garlic powder, and juice of the second lemon on top of the fish.
• Sprinkle with some sea salt on top of the steak. Then scatter with chopped green onions all around and on top of the fish. Then scatter white wine on top.
• Set it aside and let it sit for 15 minutes to marinate.
• Then BAKE for 18 to 22 minutes, or until swordfish is white, fully cooked, and tender to the fork when touched.
• Transfer to a serving plate, then pour all the remaining lemon sauce from the baking dish over the swordfish steak and serve.
• Serves 1

PAN SEARED SWORDFISH

Steps:

• Prepare your swordfish steaks by patting them dry with paper towels, then season both sides with lemon pepper and salt.
• Heat a skillet or non-stick frying pan with the olive oil over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering and just beginning to smoke.
• Add the swordfish steaks and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
• Remove the swordfish to a plate and add the lemon juice into the pan juices. Turn off the heat and add optional butter and parsley until the butter is melted. Stir and serve over the swordfish steaks.

SWORDFISH WITH LEMON DILL WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Season swordfish with pepper and broil for 5 mins each side. Remove and keep warm.
• In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add lemon juice and white wine and dill. Season with pepper to taste.
• remove some of the liquid and let cool. Add the cornstarch to cooled liquid and mix together until smooth. Add this back into skillet and simmer, stirring until slightly thickened.
• Remove swordfish steaks and place on plates. Spoon sauce over each steak and garnish with dill sprigs.

GRILLED SWORDFISH WITH LEMON CAPER BUTTER

Steps:

• While fish is grilling, in a small saucepan, combine butter, lemon juice, capers, garlic and salt.
• Heat on grill or stovetop until butter is melted and flavors have combined, 2-3 minutes.
