Swordfish, Sicilian Style image

DH and I enjoyed this recipe from Williams-Sonoma last night very much. We cooked in our stovetop grill pan. The recipe made more spice rub than was needed to coat the steaks so we heavily applied. We found that this overpowered the dish a bit, so I would recommend not heavily applying the rub, just use enough to coat. We used kalamata olives for the black olives.

1 tablespoon garlic powder

  • Arrange the fish steaks on individual plates and top with the salsa or serve it alongside.
