Here is another for Worldwide for ZWT3 but I have made this and it was delish. Easy to make the only thing I left out is the hot red pepper flakes as I can't eat "Hot". I also used both green and black olives. I served with a simple tomato/feta salad and rice pilaf. QUICK, EASY AND DELISH!

Tips:

Choose the Freshest Fish Possible: The quality of your swordfish will greatly impact the final dish, so be sure to select the freshest fish available.
Make Sure to Dry the Swordfish Thoroughly: Before applying the rub, make sure to pat the swordfish dry with paper towels. This will help the rub adhere better and create a more flavorful crust.
Don't Overcook the Swordfish: Swordfish is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked, so be careful not to cook it for too long. The ideal internal temperature for swordfish is 135 degrees Fahrenheit.
Use a Good Quality Olive Oil: The olive oil you use in the rub and relish will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish, so be sure to use a good quality extra virgin olive oil.
Don't Be Afraid to Experiment with the Herbs and Spices: The basil rub recipe is just a starting point - feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices to create your own unique flavor profile.

This grilled basil-rubbed swordfish with tomato-green olive relish is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The swordfish is cooked to perfection and the relish adds a bright and tangy flavor that complements the fish perfectly. This dish is also relatively easy to make, making it a great option for busy weeknight meals. Simply grill the swordfish, make the relish, and serve with your favorite sides.
