Time 1h35m

2 heirloom tomatoes, small dice
1 jalapeño, minced (ribs and seeds removed if you'd like less heat)
1 small red onion, minced

Juice of 2 limes
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Provided by januarybride

Categories     European

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons table salt
2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano (may substitute1 teaspoon dried)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
fresh ground pepper
2 lbs swordfish steaks, cut 1/2 inch thick

Steps:

  • Preheat grill on high (or preheat the broiler on high).
  • In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice with the salt until the salt dissolves. Stir in the oregano. Slowly whisk in the olive oil and season generously with pepper.
  • Grill the swordfish steaks over high heat (as close to the heat as possible), turning once, until cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes.
  • Transfer the fish to a platter. Prick each fish steak in several places with a fork to allow the sauce to penetrate.
  • Using a spoon, beat the sauce, then drizzle it over the fish.
  • Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right swordfish: Look for swordfish steaks that are about 1 inch thick and have a firm, meaty texture. Avoid steaks that are too thin or have a lot of dark spots.
  • Marinate the swordfish: Marinating the swordfish in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices will help to infuse it with flavor and keep it moist while cooking.
  • Cook the swordfish over high heat: Swordfish is a firm fish that can withstand high heat. Cooking it over high heat will help to create a flavorful crust and prevent the fish from becoming dry.
  • Don't overcook the swordfish: Swordfish is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque in the center, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Serve the swordfish immediately: Swordfish is best served immediately after cooking. It can be served with a variety of sides, such as grilled vegetables, rice, or potatoes.

Conclusion:

Indonesian grilled swordfish is a delicious and healthy dish that is easy to make. By following these tips, you can cook swordfish that is flavorful, moist, and cooked to perfection.
