Swordfish Poached In Olive Oil With Broccoli Rabe Pesto 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

Steps:

• Use the butter to grease the bottom and halfway up the side of the slow cooker. Arrange the onion slices over the bottom of the slow cooker, pressing them into the butter so that they stay in place. Pour in the water.

Cover and cook on high for 45 minutes or until the fish is opaque. Transfer the (well-drained) fish to individual serving plates or to a serving platter Add the oil,lemon juice, mustard and pepper, if using, to a bowl; whisk to combine. Immediately before serving the swordfish, fold in the parsley. Evenly divide the sauce between the swordfish steaks.

Place a hot or chilled swordfish steak over each plate of the dressed greens. Spoon additional sauce over the fish.
