Swordfish With Lemon Garlic And Olive Oil Food

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!

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

SWORDFISH MARINATED IN LEMON, ROSEMARY AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Combine the lemon zest, oil, rosemary and garlic on a large, shallow platter or a tray large enough to hold the swordfish steaks in a single layer. Add the swordfish, sprinkle with salt and pepper and turn to coat with the marinade. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours.
• Brush the grill or broiler pan with a thin film of oil. Just before serving time, preheat the grill or broiler. Transfer the swordfish to grill or broiler pan, reserve the marinade left on the platter. If broiling, adjust the oven rack so that the tops of the fish are about 3 inches from the heat source. Grill or broil until lightly browned, 5 to 8 minutes, depending on the intensity of the heat. Using a spatula, carefully turn each steak. Spoon any marinade and pieces of lemon zest and rosemary onto the tops of the steaks. Broil until lightly browned and the center of the fish is opaque when tested with the tip of a knife, about 5 to 8 minutes. Serve garnished with capers and lemon wedges.

SWORDFISH WITH LEMON, GARLIC AND OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the lemon juice and olive oil.
• Place the swordfish cubes in a shallow glass dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour about 1/3 cup of the olive oil and lemon mixture over the fish and toss to coat evenly.
• Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours.
• Add the garlic and oregano to the remaining olive oil and lemon mixture.
• Set aside to use as a sauce.
• Preheat the broiler or fire up the barbecue.
• Cut the onion through the stem end into quarters and separate each quarter into individual pieces.
• Alternate the swordfish cubes with the onion pieces and bay leaves on skewers.
• Arrange the skewers on a broiler pan or on the grill rack.
• Broil or grill, turning once, until the fish is opaque throughout when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 3 minutes on each side.
• Serve hot, garnished with lemon slices and accompanied by the reserved sauce.

GRILLED SWORDFISH WITH LEMON, MINT AND BASIL

Steps:

• Prepare the grill (medium-high heat). Whisk the oil, mint, lemon juice, basil, and garlic in a medium bowl to blend. Season the lemon and olive oil mixture with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Brush the swordfish steaks with 2 tablespoons of the lemon and olive oil mixture. Grill the steaks until just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side (depending on thickness of steaks). Transfer the steaks to plates. Spoon the remaining sauce over and serve.

SWORDFISH WITH LEMON AND FENNEL

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife, cut the skin off the swordfish, then cut the fish into 1-inch cubes. Season fish cubes generously with salt and pepper.
• Using a mortar and pestle or the flat side of a heavy knife, lightly crush the fennel seeds to release their flavor.
• In a skillet large enough to hold all the fish cubes in one layer, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter melts. Add the fish to the pan and let cook, turning the fish and basting with the oil and butter, for 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic, fennel seeds, lemon zest and chile flakes and continue to cook, stirring gently so as not to break up the fish cubes, until the fish is just cooked through, about 2 minutes longer. Gently stir in the lemon juice. Taste and add more salt and chile flakes if desired. Garnish with fennel fronds and lemon wedges.
