Best 9 Swordfish With Green Sauce Recipes

SWORDFISH WITH SOMALI CILANTRO AND GREEN CHILE PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sauce: In the jar of a blender or in a food processor, combine the coconut milk, lime juice, vinegar, cilantro, jalapeños, garlic, sugar, and salt and puree until smooth. Season the sauce to taste with more lime juice or salt if needed. Serve immediately or place in a jar and store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
• For the swordfish: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the swordfish dry and season with salt. Add the olive oil to the skillet. When the oil is hot, add the swordfish and cook until golden on the underside, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until just cooked through, about 2 minutes more. To serve, mound the cabbage on serving plates and top with the swordfish. Drizzle with some of the cilantro and green chile sauce.

SWORDFISH WITH GREEN SAUCE

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.

GRILLED SWORDFISH "SANDWICH" WITH GREEN SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or broiler to moderately hot and put the rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source. Combine the anchovies, parsley, garlic, lemon juice and zest, and 2 tablespoons of the oil in a small food processor or blender. Process until pureed, adding a little bit of hot water (or more olive oil) if necessary to allow the machine to do its work. Combine the puree with the capers.
• Cut the swordfish in half horizontally, leaving the skin attached as a hinge. Spread about half of the mixture on the inside of the "sandwich," then close the steak with a couple of toothpicks. Brush with the remaining oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Grill for at least 5 minutes per side, or until the swordfish is done (it should remain slightly translucent in the center). Serve with the remaining green sauce.

CURRY-RUBBED SWORDFISH STEAKS WITH FRESH GREEN YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• Position a broiler pan on the rack closest to the broiler element and preheat to high.
• For the chutney: With the machine running, drop the ginger into the bowl of a food processor and process until coarsely chopped. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then add the scallions, mint, cilantro, yogurt, jalapeno, lime juice, and salt. Process to a textured sauce similar in consistency to pesto, adding water to adjust the consistency, if necessary. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• For the fish: rub the oil, curry, salt and pepper on the fish. Carefully lay the swordfish on the preheated broiler pan and return to the broiler. Cook the steaks without turning until just cooked through more or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the side registers about 135 degrees F, about 4 minutes. Transfer steaks to 4 plates and serve with the chutney and rice, if desired.
