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 marinade 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 on to 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.

GRILLED ROSEMARY SWORDFISH
My husband loves swordfish, and we have a ton of swordfish recipes because of that. But, this is his favorite way to have it-moist, tender and perked up with herbs. Tuna is a good substitute for swordfish. Its firm texture stands up to grilling. -Lorie Rice, Liverpool, New York

Tips:
- Use the freshest swordfish steaks you can find. Fresh swordfish has a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a firm, meaty texture.
- Marinate the swordfish steaks for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. This allows the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the fish and tenderize it.
- If you don't have time to marinate the swordfish, you can simply brush it with olive oil, salt, and pepper before cooking.
- Cook the swordfish steaks over medium heat until they are cooked through. Swordfish is a relatively thick fish, so it will take a few minutes to cook through. Be careful not to overcook it, or it will become dry and tough.
- Swordfish is a versatile fish that can be cooked in a variety of ways. You can grill it, broil it, bake it, or pan-fry it.
- Serve swordfish with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
Conclusion:
Swordfish is a delicious and healthy fish that is easy to cook. By following these tips, you can ensure that your swordfish is cooked to perfection every time. Whether you are grilling, broiling, baking, or pan-frying it, swordfish is sure to please everyone at your table.
