Best Grilled Swordfish And Green Olive Relish Recipes

Simply Grilled Basil-Rubbed Swordfish with Tomato-Green Olive Relish image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 clove garlic
Kosher salt
2 anchovy fillets, patted dry, chopped
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
Pinch red pepper flakes
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 plum tomatoes, halved, seeded and finely diced
1/4 cup chopped green olives
1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped, plus 8 basil leaves for rubbing
4 swordfish steaks, each about 1 1/2-inches thick
2 tablespoons canola oil
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Smash the garlic, sprinkle it with salt, and mash and smear it to a paste using the flat side of a knife. Add the garlic paste to a medium bowl along with the anchovy, vinegar, pepper flakes and some salt. Whisk to combine, then slowly whisk in the olive oil until emulsified. Add the tomatoes, olives, capers and chopped basil and gently stir to combine. Let the relish sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Heat a grill to high. Rub both sides of each swordfish steak with two of the basil leaves, leaving some of the now-bruised basil on top of each steak. Brush the steaks with the canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill, basil-side down, until charred, about 4 minutes. Turn and cook until opaque throughout, another 4 minutes. Remove to a platter and immediately spoon the relish over the fish.

When the grill is ready, sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper and cook over medium-high heat for 2 minutes on one side, then turn and cook for 1 to 2 minutes on the other side until almost cooked through. Remove to a flat dish, prick holes in the fish with the tines of a fork, and pour the lemon sauce over the fish while it¿s still hot. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
When ready to serve, place the swordfish on dinner plates or a serving platter, pile the arugula on top, drizzle with the sauce from the fish, and sprinkle with the grated lemon zest. Serve warm.
