Best Fish For Crish Red Mole Swordfish Steaks With Pickled Shallots Recipes

SWORDFISH WITH SICILIAN OREGANO-CAPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Stir together garlic, lemon juice, vinegar, capers, oregano, and peperoncino in a small bowl. Let stand at least 10 minutes and up to 2 hours. Just before serving, add thyme and mint; stir to combine. Gradually add oil, stirring to combine; season with salt.
• Heat grill to medium. Lightly brush grates with oil. Season fish with salt and pepper and grill until marked, then turn and cook 2 to 4 minutes more for medium-rare. (Or cook in a grill basket brushed with oil.) Transfer to plates, top with oregano-caper sauce, and serve with lemon wedges.

PICKLED SHALLOTS AND RED ONIONS

Steps:

• Combine the white vinegar, sugar and 1 teaspoon salt in a small saucepan with 1/2 cup water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add the onions and shallots to a pint jar and pour the liquid over the top. Let cool completely. Refrigerate up to 1 week.

GRILLED SWORDFISH RéMOULADE

Steps:

• Start a wood or charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill (or broiler); the fire should be quite hot and the rack about 4 inches from the heat source. While it's heating, make the mayonnaise and combine it with all the remaining ingredients except the fish. (If you're making the mayonnaise in a food processor or blender, you can save yourself some mincing by adding the garlic at the beginning and pulsing in the other solid ingredients while the sauce is still in the machine.)
• Grill the fish, turning when nicely browned, about 4 or 5 minutes, then cook for 4 or 5 minutes more. The fish is done when just a bit of translucence remains in its center; use a thin-bladed knife to check. Serve hot or cold, with the rémoulade sauce.

PAN-SEARED SWORDFISH STEAKS WITH SHALLOT, CAPER, AND BALSAMIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Pat swordfish dry and season with salt and pepper. In a heavy skillet heat butter and oil over moderately high heat until foam subsides and sauté shallots with salt to taste, stirring, 1 minute. Push shallots to side of skillet. Add swordfish and sauté until golden, about 3 minutes. Turn fish over and add wine, vinegar, capers, and water. Simmer mixture 3 minutes, or until fish is just cooked through.
• Transfer fish to 2 plates and stir parsley into sauce. Spoon sauce over fish.

BAKED SWORDFISH IN A WHITE WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Place swordfish in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Place bell pepper slices around the fish. Pour wine over top and sprinkle with shallots. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Remove fish from the refrigerator.
• Bake in the preheated oven, basting occasionally with the wine marinade, until fish flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 30 minutes.
