Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

Yogurt Sauce
1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 large garlic clove, minced

2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 teaspoons caraway seeds

Steps:

  • For Yogurt Sauce:
  • Whisk yogurt, chopped cilantro and minced garlic in small bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper.

I had a hard time finding swordfish at my local grocery store, but I was able to find it at a specialty fish market.

The spice rub was a little too spicy for my taste, but the grilled swordfish was still very good.
