- Use a Good Quality Lemon-Parsley Sauce: The sauce is what really makes this dish special. Make sure to use fresh lemon juice, parsley, and butter. You can also add a touch of white wine or fish stock for extra flavor.
- Serve the Swordfish Immediately: Swordfish is best served immediately after it is cooked. It can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
