Best 7 Swordfish Steaks With Spicy Marinade Recipes
Swordfish steaks are a versatile and delicious seafood option that can be cooked in a variety of ways. One popular method is to marinate the steaks in a spicy marinade before grilling or baking them. This helps to infuse the fish with flavor and add a bit of heat. There are many different recipes for spicy swordfish marinades, so you can find one that suits your taste. Some common ingredients include olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, chili peppers, and cumin. Once you have chosen a marinade, simply mix the ingredients together and let the swordfish steaks soak for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. Then, cook the steaks according to your preferred method and enjoy!

GRILLED MARINATED SWORDFISH STEAKS
Swordfish, with its firm, lean flesh, is an ideal candidate for grilling. It's not as forgiving as some fatty fish, like tuna and black sea bass, so proceed with caution. If you remove the fish from the fire when the center is still slightly pink, by the time it gets to the table it should be cooked through. A quick marinade of soy sauce, red wine vinegar, rosemary, garlic, coriander and cumin pairs beautifully with the meatiness of the fish, but do not marinate for more than 10 to 15 minutes, or the acid will break down the flesh and leave it mushy (or the flavor will overpower the fish). If you don't have a grill, this works equally well in a broiler. Serve this alongside a colorful pile of Pierre Franey's green bean and tomato salad. It's a summer meal you'll never forget. (Swordfish is on the Monterey Bay Aquarium's seafood watch list, but you can find sustainable options here.)

Steps:
- Preheat a charcoal grill or broiler, or heat a grill pan.

- If the swordfish is to be cooked on a grill (or grill pan), place fish on grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and cook for 3 minutes more. Cook longer if desired. If it is to be cooked under a broiler, place fish on a rack and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Serve with a string bean salad.

Tips:
- To ensure the best flavor, use fresh swordfish steaks that are about 1 inch thick. Avoid steaks that are too thin, as they will overcook quickly and become dry.
- For a more intense flavor, marinate the swordfish steaks for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. The marinade will help to tenderize the fish and infuse it with flavor.
- When grilling the swordfish steaks, be sure to preheat the grill to medium-high heat. This will help to prevent the fish from sticking to the grill and will also help to create a nice sear.
- Cook the swordfish steaks for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. The fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve the swordfish steaks immediately with your favorite sides, such as rice, grilled vegetables, or a salad.
Conclusion:
Swordfish steaks are a delicious and healthy seafood option that can be easily prepared at home. By following these tips, you can cook swordfish steaks that are perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give swordfish steaks a try!
