Hot Smoked Swordfish with White Clam-Garlic-Parsley Sauce image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 15h35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup kosher salt
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons black peppercorns
One 4-inch-thick chunk swordfish loin, skin removed
2 to 3 tablespoons canola oil
2 dozen littleneck clams
2 tablespoons canola oil
3 cloves garlic, mashed to a paste with a little salt
1 small serrano chile, finely diced
1 cup white wine
1 tablespoon cold unsalted butter
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus a handful leaves for garnish
Zest of 1 lemon
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the swordfish: Stir together 8 cups water, the salt, sugar and peppercorns in a deep pot. Bring to a boil just to dissolve the salt and sugar; cool completely. Submerge the swordfish in the brine. Refrigerate for 12 hours.
  • Remove the swordfish from the brine and rinse well under cold water. Pat dry and allow to air dry for at least 1 hour. The exterior of the fish should feel sticky to the touch before smoking.
  • Prepare a smoker with maplewood chips and to an internal temperature of 200 to 225 degrees F.
  • Brush the fish very lightly with canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Smoke the fish for about 2 hours, adding chips through the first hour as necessary. You can keep adding chips the second hour if you prefer a much smokier flavor. Transfer the smoked fish to a large platter.
  • For the clam sauce: Remove the meat from half the clams and chop roughly. Heat the canola oil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the garlic and chile and cook for a few seconds. Add the chopped clams and cook, stirring, for another minute. Add the wine, bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half.
  • Add the whole clams, cover the saucepan and cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until the clams open, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the butter. Remove from the heat and stir in the chopped parsley and lemon zest. Taste, and season with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over and around the smoked swordfish, and scatter the parsley leaves on top.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 heirloom tomatoes, small dice
1 jalapeño, minced (ribs and seeds removed if you'd like less heat)
1 small red onion, minced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Juice of 2 limes
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
4 swordfish steaks, skin and bloodline removed

Steps:

  • Add the tomatoes, jalapeño, onions, cilantro and lime juice to a bowl and mix to combine. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature for at least an hour for all the flavors to come together.
  • Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Drizzle the swordfish with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides. Place on the direct-heat side of the grill and cook until nicely charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Move to the indirect-heat side of the grill, close the lid and cook until cooked through, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the grill to rest, about 5 minutes. Serve the swordfish with the salsa spooned over the top.

SWORDFISH WITH GREEN SAUCE

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

10 to 15 anchovy fillets
1 1/2 cup parsley leaves, washed and left wet
2 cloves garlic
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons capers, with their liquid
1 1/2 to 2 pounds swordfish steak, skin on
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare a charcoal grill or preheat a gas grill or broiler; the fire should be moderately hot and the rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source. In a small food processor or blender, combine anchovies, parsley, garlic, lemon juice and zest, and 2 tablespoons oil. Process until puréed, adding a little bit of hot water (or more oil) if necessary to allow the machine to do its work. Stir the capers into the purée.
  • Cut swordfish steaks in half horizontally, leaving the skin attached as a hinge. Spread about half the parsley mixture on the inside, then close the steak with a couple of toothpicks. Brush with remaining oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Grill or broil 6 or 7 minutes a side, or until the swordfish is done (swordfish is best when it is still slightly pearly, or you can cook it until it is flaky and well done). Serve with remaining green sauce.
