Grilled Swordfish With Herb Marinade Food

HERB MARINATED GRILLED SWORDFISH STEAKS

Steps:

• Combine all the marinade ingredients in a bowl. After cleaning and drying your fish allow it to marinade for 2 - 3 hours {1 hour minimum} in the refrigerator.
• Prepare your grill on high and brush the grates with some olive oil. Place your swordfish steaks on direct heat and cook for about 7 minutes per side. Steaks are done once they've reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees (I use an internal read thermometer like the thermapen to test internal temp).Once they're cooked let them rest before serving them.

GRILLED MARINATED SWORDFISH WITH FIRE ROASTED PEPPERS, ONIONS, MUSHROOMS AND HERB VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and pulse to combine. Use to marinate swordfish, salmon, tuna, or red snapper overnight.
• Fresh herb vinaigrette: 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves 1 teaspoon fresh oregano leaves 8 large fresh basil leaves 1/2 cup extravirgin olive oil Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
• Combine the vinegar and mustard in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse briefly, then add the herbs. Pulse again until coarsely chopped. With the processor running, add the olive oil very slowly so that the mixture will emulsify into a smooth blend. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. This dressing will keep for up to 10 days in the refrigerator.
• 4 6 to 8 ounce swordfish steaks, at least 3/4 inch thick 2 large vidalia onions, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick slices 2 sweet red peppers, seeded and sliced into rings 2 sweet yellow peppers, seeded and sliced into rings 12 large shiitake mushroom caps 2 tablespoons olive oil Salt and pepper
• The night before, rub the swordfish steaks with the marinade. Cover and marinate, refrigerated, overnight. The next day, prepare an outdoor grill for cooking. Right before grilling, toss the onions, peppers and mushrooms with the olive oil, salt and pepper. When the grill is hot, grill the swordfish until it is well colored on both sides and the interior is medium (about 3 to 4 minutes per side, total).When you have added the fish to the grill, spread the vegetables along the perimeter of the grill and carefully cook the vegetables without burning. Remove the fish from the grill, plate, drizzle with vinaigrette over the fish, top with vegetables and serve.
