SWORDFISH BLT

Swordfish BLT image

Here's a summery take on grilled swordfish, dressed with the fixings for that ever-popular, all-American sandwich, the BLT. No, it's not a slice of grilled swordfish in a sandwich, though that might not be a bad idea in some other context. This dish is dinner-party fare, fresh off the grill. Bacon, arugula and tomatoes in a lemony dressing, bolstered with bacon fat, top and sauce the fish. As an added bonus, I've brushed some of the bacon fat on the fish before grilling. The BLT mixture can be assembled a couple of hours in advance, so the grilling is the only last-minute task. The finished dish has a bright, beautiful presentation that suits the season.

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1/2 pound thick-sliced bacon, about 9 strips
1 cup halved grape tomatoes, about 30
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and ground black pepper
2 1/2 pounds swordfish steaks, in 6 portions
1 cup packed, finely chopped arugula

Steps:

Fry bacon to medium doneness, remove to drain on paper towels and reserve fat. Place tomatoes in a medium-size bowl. Add lemon juice and olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat. Break up bacon into small pieces and mix in. Set aside until ready to grill swordfish.
Heat a grill or broiler. Brush swordfish on both sides with remaining bacon fat and season with salt and pepper. Grill or broil fish until just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side, more or less, depending on the thickness of the fish. Remove fish to a serving platter.
Fold arugula into tomato mixture, then spoon mixture, including its sauce, on top of the fish. Serve.
